Nyanna Payton, Manual's leading scorer, solidified her role on Thursday. Payton made a splash, dropping a double-double on 17 points and 12 boards. She was up against Richwoods and has quite the history against that squad, as she also had a great game the last time she faced them back in January of 2024. Payton is becoming a predictor of Manual's success: when she posts at least eight rebounds the team is 17-6 (and 1-5 when she doesn't).

Coming up, Payton and Manual will face off against Champaign Central at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday. Manual has been struggling on the road and they will enter the contest having lost four straight away games. Will Payton and her teammates be able to turn things around?
