Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask South Mecklenburg). They breezed past the Berry Cardinals to the tune of 75-21 on Tuesday. The Sabres have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 13 contests by 20 points or more this season.
South Mecklenburg's victory was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Nykira Arrington, who went 6-for-8 on her way to 12 points along with seven rebounds and four steals. Arrington is on a roll when it comes to steals, as she's now grabbed two or more in each of the last three games she's played. Kaitlyn Hensley was another key player, going 5-for-9 to rack up 14 points.
South Mecklenburg smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 14 offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive rebounds in 17 consecutive matches.
When it comes to explaining why Berry lost, don't look at Zahnia Long. Despite the final result, she posted ten points.
South Mecklenburg is on a roll lately: they've won 13 of their last 15 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 57.0 points over those games. Berry dropped their record down to 7-15 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road.
South Mecklenburg has already played their next contest, a 53-48 win against Myers Park on the 20th. Berry does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
