Kernersville, N.C. — Just days the coronavirus pandemic halted all eight basketball state championships, the Bishop McGuinness Lady Villains were competing in the 1A eastern regional final at East Carolina University.
Bishop McGuinness had won five of its past six games prior to facing Weldon, who had one blemish in 2019-20, inside Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum. The territory was not unfamiliar for Bishop’s girls basketball program, but surely was a different test for the 11 student-athletes. The Lady Villains had two seniors on their roster a season ago.
