    Coach Johnson ripped into me and informed me I was playing selfishly. Coach told me the team needs me to be a leader and direct this game.

    Jenna inbounded the ball to me. I dribbled toward the goal, and Jenna posted up. I threw it to her, she turned and scored.

  • Took the lead over Harrison

    54-52
