Worth County's girls overcame a slow start Tuesday, February 3rd against Pattonsburg and built up an insurmountable lead by the end of the third quarter. They went on to get a 62-38 win over the Panthers. Kristen Tracy has now saved two of her best games for the Panthers, getting 20 points, her most in quite some time, and adding 14 boards. Rylee Ruckman overcame foul trouble and added 18. The supporting cast played a big role, as the Tigers saw their lead grow from eight to 13 points with Kynlee Steele and Keira Hardy on the floor in the last four minutes of the second quarter with Ruckman and Kambree Briner sitting with three fouls.
Ruckman is another player who has saved some of her best games for the Panthers. During her eighth-grade year, the Tigers played a junior high game at the dome with Pattonsburg that featured nearly every play turning into a rugby scrum, with 36 held balls being called. Ruckman was the best player on the court that night with 13 steals, and the Tigers came away victorious.
For Pattonsburg, they got Addie Iddings back (flu), but the Tigers shut her out for the night. Jayden Goble stepped up, getting a career high 15 points and 10 rebounds. Annabelle Gardner, who always seems to save her best games for the Tigers, had 12 points and 13 rebounds. Cheyenne Miller had 8.
The game was tied and 7 and 9 before Worth County finally got some separation early in the second quarter as Audrey Runde and Rylee Ruckman got back-to-back jacks to make it 15-9. Pattonsburg was outworking and outrebounding Worth County in the early going and Worth County was making some crazy passes down the floor that weren't there.
Cheyenne Miller's free throw cut the Pattonsburg deficit to 17-12 before Kambree Briner hit a free throw and Kristen Tracy went backdoor to make it 20-12. That was the score when both Ruckman and Briner went to the bench with three fouls. Pattonsburg twice cut it to six, but after that, it was Worth County who rallied as Runde went backdoor, Kristen Tracy knocked one down in the high post, Runde got a putback, and Keira Hardy hit a 3-pointer at the halftime buzzer to make it 31-18 at the half.
Miller and Goble worked the boards to cut it to 31-22 to start the second half, but a rested Ruckman went off on one of her scoring bursts, hitting a free throw, knocking down a 3-opinter, and getting a putback to make it 37-22. Audrey Runde stole a lazy inbounds pass, Kambree Briner slashed and scored, and Rylee Ruckman hit her third triple of the night to make it 44-22 to cap off the 13-0 run.
Jayden Goble hit a free throw to break the run, but Kristen Tracy hit a shot in the high post, and then Kynlee Steele scored three points as she made a free throw, missed the second, and then the Tigers kept the possession alive for five chances before Steele drew another foul and hit two free throws as the Tigers reversed their rebounding deficit from the first half.
Kristen Tracy hit three free throws down the third quarter stretch, Kambree Briner slashed and scored, and Rylee Ruckman hit her fourth and fifth triples of the night to put the Tigers up 61-27 before they started subbing freely.
