ls’ basketball team went on the road Tuesday and gave Bowling Green School all it could handle in a non-conference matchup.
Bowling Green defeated Parklane 61-52.
Although the game was close for much of the night, the Lady Pioneers (8-4) were forced to foul in the final minutes, which enabled the Lady Bucs to extend their lead.
“I can’t say enough on how proud the coaching staff is of these ladies,” Parklane head coach Rusti Magee said. “They battled every minute in a hostile environment and never dropped their heads or quit. Our goal every game is to compete and there hasn’t been a game all season where we haven’t. We have four losses on the year by a total of 27 points. That says how far these girls have come.”
Parklane junior Tootie Carter led all scorers with a double-double of 20 points and 12 rebounds.
Junior Destini Brown also had a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds.
Sophomore point guard Lana Moak had 10 points and three assists, while senior Juliana Adams had 8 points and four rebounds.
