Jayliegh Robins Has Career Night as Shamrocks Beat Rockets

North Harrison’s girls got a spark from Jayliegh Robins as she had a career night with 16 points Monday night and the Shamrocks won their fourth straight game, winning 44-26. 

West Nodaway had played several teams tough, including St. Joseph Christian and Mound City. They were down two players; one was on vacation, and they found out on game day that another had broken her hand in practice and was out for the game, leaving them with six players. Some teams go in the tank, but West Nodaway rallied, hanging tough with North Harrison throughout the first half. 

The game was tied at 7, 9, and 15 before Reagan Hagey, who ate North Harrison alive in the high post, converted a three point play to go ahead 18-17 with 3:01 left in the second. But then Emma Craig got loose in transition on consecutive possessions to put North Harrison in front 22-18 at the half.

Robins was keeping North Harrison in the game, getting to the rim several times for ten points in the first half. Emma Craig added nine.

Like the Nodaway-Holt game, the Shamrocks came out firing in the third quarter and finally gained some separation. Jayliegh Robins started with a putback, and then Trendi Johnson got the hot hand, hitting jumpers on consecutive possessions to make it 28-18. Emma Craig went coast to coast for two, and Jayliegh Robins hit Camden Castleberry for three to make it 33-18, forcing West Nodaway into a timeout.

It didn’t matter, as Jayliegh Robins hit two free throws to make it 17. Reagan Hagey converted from the high post, but Trendi Johnson knocked down another shot from the wing and then Jayliegh Robins got a steal and got it to Camden Castleberry, who got it to Halle Morgan for the finish to make it 39-20.
