Foul trouble led to an offensive slump in the third quarter for Grady/San Jon, dooming it during a 55-48 loss Jan. 14 to visiting Dora.
Coach Alicia Rush said the Lady Bronchos’ leading scorer, Teryn Foote, got into foul trouble during the critical period. Dora outscored Grady/San Jon 11-3 in the quarter, giving the Coyotes a 41-30 lead.
“We shot better, had better ball movement and were more balanced in our scoring,” Rush said. “The girls fought hard and made a comeback but just didn’t finish with a win.”
Rush praised Bailey Montoya and Kassi Glover for their rebounding and offense.
“Krissy Grau made a difference with just good, old-fashioned effort to create turnovers and to be a spark,” Rush added.
Dora improved to 2-7.
