Saturday, the Lady Marshals took on another district foe in Community Christian Academy in Paducah and after leading just 14-7 at the end of the first quarter, the girls picked up steam to win 68-33 advancing their district record to 2-1.
Assistant Coach Kala Cary, in post-game radio comments, attributed the slow start to the Lady Marshals emotional win over Calloway County the previous night but the girls settled down and got the job done.
A basket at the buzzer gave the Lady Marshals a 31-15 halftime lead, they built upon the second half out-scoring the Lady Warriors 23 to seven in the third quarter getting six from Fehrenbacher and a three pointer by Melissa Ross for a 54-22 third quarter lead.
Ross, Michaela Manley and Caitlyn York all contributed in the final quarter as the Lady Marshals pulled out a 35 point victory.
It was another good game on the boards by Alex Brown who had 10 rebounds and Barnard who pulled in 11. Meadows and Fehrenbacher led the team in points, each with 10 as 11 Lady Marshals were in the scoring column against CCA. Payton Carter led the Lady Warriors with 17 points.
