It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but the Liberty Lightning had no problem doing just that on Monday. They strolled past the Wahawks with points to spare, taking the game 66-51. 66 seems to be a good number for Liberty as the team scooped up a victory with the same number of points in their previous game.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Liberty to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jerimiah Washpun, who scored 17 points. It was the first time this season that Washpun scored 15 or more points. Stevie Cain was another key contributor, scoring 14 points along with three steals.
The win was the third in a row for Liberty, bringing their record for this year to 11-11. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.0 points per game. As for Waterloo West, they have been struggling recently as they've lost 12 of their last 14 contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 7-20 record this season.
Liberty does not have any more games scheduled as of now. Waterloo West also has no future games currently scheduled.
