The Lady Jays wasted no time setting the tone for the new season, jumping all over the Waynesville Lady Tigers tonight.
Marshfield Senior Jessie Bruton scored 9 points in the first quarter to lead the Lady Jays to a 24-8 lead at the end of 1.
In the second quarter, the Lady jays continued to cruise as the full court pressure was too much for the Waynesville team to handle. The Lady Jays led at the half 47 to 14.
In the second half Coach Murphy pulled off the press, but even then the Lady Jays half court defense was smothering. The team was led by outstanding defense played by Marshfield Senior Alley Bruton. Although I don’t have the official stats tonight, I’m quite sure she forced over 10 turnovers as she stole the ball time after time.
Below is the scoring recap as well as the roster for this year’s Lady Jays team.
