POPLARVILLE, Miss. (PRCC Athletics) - The Pearl River womenâs basketball team shook off early rust in its 2021 debut Monday to surge past the visiting East Central Warriors 63-54 at Marvin R. White Coliseum.
âWe always preach that if you give up 55 points or less you have a chance to win the game, and obviously we gave up 54,â Pearl River coach Scotty Fletcher said. âWe gave up too much in the first half. We gave up too many easy buckets in transition and thatâs all we have worked on the last few weeks. We gave up some non-contested shots which led to some bank shot 3s. Our defense down the stretch, our zone was really good for us.
