East Ashtabula- In a commanding performance, the Edgewood Warriors girls’ basketball team maintained their perfect record by overpowering the Lakeside Dragons in a decisive 75-37 victory. The Warriors showcased a balanced offense and stifling defense throughout the game, leaving their opponents struggling to keep pace.

Key Players Shine for Edgewood

Several Warriors contributed significantly to the team’s impressive point total. Leading the charge was Katie McCollister with a standout performance, accumulating 16 points. Mckenna Vencill also played a pivotal role, adding 15 points to the scoreboard. The scoring was well-distributed among the team, emphasizing the depth of talent within the Edgewood roster.

Lakeside’s Efforts Fall Short

Despite a valiant effort from Lakeside, Marlaya McCoy’s notable contribution of 21 points couldn’t bridge the gap against Edgewood’s relentless attack. The Dragons faced a formidable opponent in the Warriors, who demonstrated not only individual skill but also a cohesive team strategy that proved too much for Lakeside to handle.

Looking Ahead

With this victory, the Edgewood Warriors maintain their undefeated status with a 5-0 record. The team now sets its sights on a road matchup against the Perry Pirates (4-1) on December 15, 2023. The Pirates are eager to rebound from a close loss to the Madison Blue Streaks and will undoubtedly present a challenge for the Warriors.

On the other side, the Lakeside Dragons (0-5) will hit the road to face the Harvey Red Raiders (1-4) on the same date. The Red Raiders, coming off a tough loss to the Geneva Eagles, will be looking to secure a win on their home court. The Dragons aim to bounce back and turn their season around with a strong showing against the Red Raiders. Both matchups promise exciting basketball action as teams vie for crucial victories in the ongoing season.
