Desirae DeRice won't forget Wednesday's contest any time soon: she posted double-digit boards for the first time in her career. She almost dropped a double-double with nine points and ten rebounds, helping propel Legacy past Somerset College Prep Academy by a score of 52-39. We marked that as the best performance she's had all season, even better than her effort on Monday (when she earned four points and eight boards) (Gamescore: 13.5 vs. 6.8).
Looking ahead, DeRice and Legacy will be home for the holidays to greet Morningside Academy at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. The Lions will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 320 places lower in Florida), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind DeRice? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more basketball content.
