Lady Dragons Go 500 for the Week

The Central Lady Dragons Basketball team faced two opponents this week, Penn Cambria and Somerset. The Lady Dragons found themselves victorious against the Somerset Lady Eagles but lost to the Penn Cambria Lady Panthers.

The Lady Dragons faced the Lady Panthers at home on Monday and lost to them 57-29. Kat Longenecker and Bralyn Ellis both scored six points for the Lady Dragons, but still wasn’t enough to pull out a victory. Central’s JV was victorious against Penn Cambria however, with a 36-25 win. High scorer was MacKenzie Rhykerd with 13 points.

Despite a loss earlier in the week, the Lady Dragons travelled to Somerset to obtain a victory against the Somerset Lady Eagles. Between a high scoring Bailey Heuston with 12 points, as well as Leah Johnston’s and Rhykerd’s 10 points each, the Lady Dragons 54-37 victory was no surprise. There was no JV game for the Lady Dragon’s Wednesday game.

The Lady Dragons are now 1-5, heading into this week’s schedule where they played in the Reliance Bank Holiday Tournament at Tyrone beginning on Wednesday, after press time.
