It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Hodgson Vo-Tech had no problem doing just that on Monday. They walked away with a 39-32 win over the Delmarva Christian Royals. Given the Eagles' advantage in MaxPreps' Delaware basketball rankings (they are ranked 23rd, while the Royals are ranked 121st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Marissa Isbell was nothing short of spectacular: she on her way to 14 points in addition to eight boards and four steals. She is on a roll when it comes to steals, as she's now grabbed four or more in each of the last three games she's played. Hope Smith was another key player, putting up eight points along with ten rebounds and three steals.
