Thursday, December 10, 2009

DANVILLE -- The Greencastle girls' basketball team moved to 5-3 on the season after a convincing win over the Danville Warriors Tuesday night. The Tiger Cubs won the contests 44-23.

Junior Mallory Miller led the team with 16 points, including three bombs from beyond the arc.

Greencastle dominated the Warriors from the opening tip, jumping out to a 16-0 first quarter lead, and then extending it to 26-2 at the half.

Danville was able to make a small run in the second half, but Greencastle's lead was too much to overcome and the Warriors dropped to 2-6 on the season.

Greencastle will be back in action Friday in the first game of a WCC battle with county rival Cloverdale.
