Worth County’s girls turned back a strong challenge from the invading Southwest Valley contingent 28-18 Sunday as the Tigers rolled through two different opponents in a home shootout.
Anna Gladstone padded the stat line against the Timberwolves as she got 17 points, 8 steals, 8 tips, and 7 boards as she carried the team. Worth County scored the first nine points of the game. Kristin New hit Regan Allee for a 3-pointer from the left wing, Jessi Badell got a putback, and then Anna Gladstone cut inside to get a pass from Kristin New and scored off a drive.
The Timberwolves fought back by scoring the next nine points and tying the game at 9 halfway through the first half. But then Gladstone came back in and scored off a drive, got a tip and steal that she turned into a free throw, and grabbed a putback to make it 14-9 to put Worth County up for good. Southwest Valley got a drive off an inbounds play to make it 14-11, but Gladstone got a steal and score and Regan Allee got a drive before Valley countered to trail 18-13 at the half.
Worth County switched from its man to its 1-3-1 to start the second half. Gladstone got two quick steals in a span of 23 seconds to make it 22-13 before the Tigers went through a 10+ minute scoring drought. But the Timberwolves could barely make a dent against the stingy Tiger defense, getting the margin only down to 22-15 at the 12:35 mark. Finally, the second group got the Tigers untracked as Jill Hardy scored off a Megan Cassavaugh steal and the first group came back in and Anna cut inside and got a pass from Regan Allee to supply the dagger and put Worth County back in control up 26-15.
