BRONAUGH, Mo. — College Heights started off the new year in style, running away from Bronaugh for a 51-27 victory on Tuesday.
With the win, the Cougars improve to 6-4 on the season.
“We played well in spurts tonight, but you could tell it was our first game back from Christmas break,” College Heights coach John Blankenship said. “Our shooting was a little rusty. We had a great week of practice. Our conditioning was good which led to our defense creating a lot of turnovers. We had a starter and top reserve out sick tonight. Lauren Ukena also went out early with a wrist injury. Missing those three impacted our play and rotation a little. All things considered, I was pleased with our performance after a long lay off.”
Libby Fanning led the way with 27 points and 19 rebounds to finish with a double-double. Jayli Johnson finished with 11 points and four assists, while Maddy Colin added eight points, five rebounds, four assists and three steals. Molly Long finished with seven rebounds and three steals.
College Heights hosts Miller on Thursday.
