Freshman girls down Devilettes

The Lady Pioneer freshmen gave their guests from Lebanon a rude welcome Thursday night, handing the Blue Devilettes a 48-23 loss at Dalton Gym.

Taylor Douglas scored a game-high 22 points, and the Lady Pioneers closed the first quarter with a 13-0 run, taking command for good.

Ahead by a 15-3 margin after the opening quarter, WCHS took advantage of Lebanon?s inaccuracy as it expanded its scoreboard edge. Lebanon managed just one field goal in the second period, while the Lady Pioneers got six points from Douglas on their way to a 10-point period and a 25-9 halftime lead.

Eight unanswered points, including a three-point play from Lea Montgomery, helped Warren County continue to expand its lead in the third, which ended with back-to-back Douglas buckets which gave the home club a hefty 39-18 lead and allowed them to coast through the game?s final stanza.

Lauren Lytle added eight points for the Lady Pioneers, while Jasmine Wood had seven and Montgomery finished with six. Lebanon was led by a 15-point night by Brittnie McDannald.
