The Lady Broncos pulled off a great win over their biggest threat in their five-team District last Friday night at home. The Lady Broncos survived all attempts by the Pantherettes to stop them and earned a 52-40 win to go 4-0 in the first half of District play.
The Lady Broncos actually trailed by one point after the first quarter, but put together a solid second quarter to take a commanding lead into the break. They were able to explode their offense in the second half and put together a great defense that stopped Panhandle from finding a rhythm.
Several Lady Broncos stepped up in the game and added points to the board at crucial times and three finished in double figures. Taylor Gaines led the ladies with 16, Deborah Howard had 12, and Taylor DeGrate helped with 11. Ryann Starnes had seven, and Phara Berry, Camra Smith, and Skyler White added two.
Earlier in the week, the Lady Broncos stomped White Deer on the road 63-40. They jumped out to an early lead and opened a twenty-seven-point lead at the break. White Deer cold do nothing to stop them and the Lady Broncos breezed to the win.
Scoring: Gaines 17, Smith 10, DeGrate 10, White 10, Berry 5, and Brittney Braim 2.
The Lady Broncos will begin their second half of District play at home Friday, January 24, against Claude beginning at 6:00 p.m.
