GAME 3 - Fort Bend Austin

Our JV Lady Spartans followed up our win against Fort Bend Kempner with another solid victory against Fort Bend Austin. A strong team defensive effort of 18 steals kept our opponent at bay,  which resulted in them only scoring 24 points.

We started fast out of the gates with 9 points in the first quarter. The Lady Spartans continued hustling and held on to a three-point lead going into the second quarter. In addition to our stifling transitional defense, this game marked our best effort crashing the boards and cleaning up the glass as the team had 29 rebounds.

The Lady Spartans' tenacity eventually led to wearing down our opponent and extended the lead to six points after three quarters. As the fourth quarter continued, our defensive focus increased,  which allowed for us to score some easy transitional points.

The game ended with a 31 to 24 victory over Fort Bend Austin.

Some of the impressive hustle stats of interest were the following:

  • Jordan Lundy had 8 pts with 2 steals, 8 rebounds, and 1 block.
