A Fearless Victory
Women of Valor Fearless are the new 2021 PWC National U16 Girls Champions 🏀🥇🏆💙👍🏼💪🏽
The WOV Fearless defeated Women of Valor Courage in a nail biting overtime finish on Saturday evening (July 10) at the John Gray Gym.
Courage led the game in the first quarter as their star player Annika Moore kept her teammates in the game but with a few defensive adjustments from Fearless Coach April Ebanks, Selezqua McLaughlin and her squad were neck and neck with the regular season champs through the end. When Fearless’ leading scorer McLaughlin fouled out late in the 3rd quarter everyone thought the game was over. But a few mins into the 4th quarter Courage’s leading scorer Moore also got her 5th foul. For the remainder of the game both teams were forced to finish without their leading scorers.
Selezqua McLaughlin led her Fearless team with 21 points. But it was Brivanna Bodden who stepped up big time for Fearless with 14 points, 7 rebounds, 3 steals. Also worthy of note, Bodden was 100% on the freethrow line.
Lorrie Brown also stepped up big grabbing 20 rebounds and 8 points.
For Courage: Annika Moore led the team with 31 points, 10 rebounds, 7 steals and 3 blocks.
The final score 51 to 49
