Lady Knights rally past Ada
By Cort Reynolds
CONVOY - Host Crestview rode a big third quarter to down the Ada girls basketball team 77-32 in a Northwest Conference girls basketball contest Thursday night.
The Lady Bulldogs fell to 4-10 and 0-4 in the NWC with the loss that snapped a two-game win streak. Meanwhile, the Lady Knights improved to 7-6 and 3-2 in league play following the win.
Ada led 14-12 after the first period of play. But Crestview rallied to a 30-18 advantage by intermission, then put the game out of reach with a 28-4 third quarter.
The Knights outscored Ada 47-14 after intermission, and 65-18 after the first stanza. The purple and gold are 3-3 on the road this season.
"Their pressure and rebounding hurt us," said Bulldog head coach Bill Taflinger.
Junior guard Raina England topped the Bulldogs with 10 points and four assists. Senior wing Anney Archer contributed nine points and five steals. Bulldog senior Maddie Gossard added five rebounds.
Ada junior Rilan Conley missed the Crestview game with a sprained ankle, but the Bulldogs hope to have her back for next Thursday's NWC game at home vs. Paulding.
