ATHENS, W.Va. (WVVA) - The Lady Mountain Lions never trailed in their meeting with No. 5 Charleston on Saturday, pulling off a 59-54 upset.
Concord freshman Maddie Ratcliff lifted her team to victory with a team-high 17 points eight of them coming in the final 3:05 of the contest. No nerves, she said after the game. I knew coming in what we had to do and it just came to me today. Two years ago when we signed Alexis Phillips she was a sophomore we were watching Pulaski play, head coach Kenny Osborne said. Tesla Southcott, my assistant, said we re going to get her that s one Maddie replacing another Maddy. That s what they called Madison May.
The Lady Toppers (1-5) fell short 73-59 in Cookeville, Tennessee against the Tennessee Tech Lady Golden Eagles (3-1).
âRight now, we still play very frantic on the court,â head coach Greg Collins said. âWeâre not strong enough and that shows up on the boards. Until we get a lot tougher on those boards and get a lot more settled with the ball we just arenât going to beat anybody.âÂ
Collins said there were also other issues with the teamâs performance today including rebounding, boxing out, and turning the ball over.
âThe turnovers are the ultimate story,â Collins said. âWeâre not gonna get shots if weâre just giving the ball away.
