Mustangs Cruise Past Bucks 94-8
By: Oliver Griffin
The Montgomery County Community College Women's Mustangs dominated Bucks County Community College in Thursday evening's matchup. The Mustangs brought fuel and fire in this game, serving a 94-8 victory over the Centurions.
The Mustangs were all over this game. From the start, their full court press was unbreakable. The Mustangs were able to force turnover after turnover, as well as tough shots from the Centurions offense, allowing Montco to maximize each possession. Montco dominated the paint, moving the ball inside and out of the paint, absolutely stifling the defense. The first half was all Mustangs, leading by 58, and giving up ZERO first-half points! Bucks County came out much more aggressive in the second half, but the Mustangs did not let up. They fought for every loose ball, trusted their offensive plan, and held each other accountable on defense.
Multiple players were on triple-double watch for the Mustangs against the Centurions, and every player got a piece of the pie. Kaysia Norris finished with 10 points and 13 rebounds, for her first double-double of the season. Cha'nyah Dunston Mason filled up the stat sheet, and was easily one of the most impactful players on the floor, ending the game with 18 points (7-13 FG), 8 rebounds, 5 assists, and 7 steals! Starting forward Lily Sherman was a force on the offensive rebounds, grabbing 10 offensive boards to match up with her 7 points. In her first official game with the team, Nijah Ball connected for 14 points and 9 rebounds off the bench, making for an exciting start to her season. Finally, Naiya Daisy, who came off the bench against the Centurions, exploded for 24 points, 6 rebounds, and 12 steals!
This matchup was certainly a momentum builder for the Mustangs, who will look to improve their 3-2 record against Lehigh Carbon Community College on Saturday, December 3, in a 12:00 matchup.
