“This was a really good road win for our team,” said Glenvar coach Josh Jones.
The girls played the second game Monday and lost 31-9. Emmy Barba, Aaliyah Zackery and Olivia Whitney had two points each.
Tough game,” said Glenvar coach Andrew Wilson. “Blacksburg came out hard and played some tough man to man defense. We struggled to attack and get movement.”
Last Thursday at Glenvar the Highlanders swept Central Academy. The boys played first and rolled to a 64-6 win as Williamson scored 20 points before Jones cleared the bench. Hudson Luton and Jaxson Kuzmich had four steals each and Kuzmich also added 10 points.
The girls played next and won 32-8 behind 14 points by Maudie Doolan. Kamy Dawyot hit a three and finished with five points.
“We had a big size advantage and our posts were playing hard,” said Quillan. “CAMS had a hard time handling our press.”
The Highlanders were scheduled to host Pulaski on Wednesday but results were too late for publication.
