Worth County’s Junior High girls didn’t have an answer for either Jacquelyn Cline (17 points) or Saylor Brown (16 points) as they fell 38-20 last Tuesday night.
North Nodaway scorched the nets for 16 points right out of the gate. Saylor Brown started off the scoring for North Nodaway with a steal and then Jacquelyn Cline followed with another with 4:16 left that she turned into a 3-point play. Felicia Wyllie followed with another, followed by a Cline 3-pointer from the left wing off a pass from Saylor Brown. Brown scored the next six points, getting a steal, scoring off a coast to coast transition look, and scoring off a diving steal from Elaina Renfro to cap the 16-0 run before Madelyn Runde finally put Worth County on the board to make it 16-2 after one period.
Saylor Brown continued to have the hot hand for North Nodaway, getting a shot from the left wing off a pass from Cline and going coast to coast again to make it 20-2. But then Worth County started coming out and playing like a completely different team as Taylor Sanders did all she could to try to get her team back in the game. First, she stripped Saylor Brown and went in for a layup. Then, Worth County got another steal and Taylor Sanders aired it out to Hailey Adwell. Then, Aivry Griffin hit Sanders on the right wing to make it 20-8.
Cline’s jumper on the left wing made it 23-8, but then Worth County started coming back again as Adwell connected on the right side after Ali Brown kicked it out, Taylor Sanders got loose in the lane and went backdoor to Ali Brown, and Sanders hit Alison Anderson for a closely guarded baseline shot that went in to make it 23-14 after three.
But then North Nodaway started pulling away again in the fourth. Saylor Brown pushed one ahead to Jacquelyn Cline for a layup and then Felicia Wyllie went coast to coast to make it 27-14, giving North Nodaway some breathing room. Taylor Sanders hit a tough shot for Worth County to cut it to 11, but then Saylor Brown went coast to coast for a 3-point play to open the floodgates again. Brown got another steal, then Cline off a Wyllie steal. Saylor Brown aired one out to Cline for a layup and then jumped a pass for another layup. Ali Brown scored four late for Worth County.
