It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Westover had no problem doing just that on Tuesday. They secured a 35-30 W over the C.B. Aycock Golden Falcons. This was payback for the Wolverines, who suffered a 66-59 loss the last time these two teams met.
Westover found their leader in sophomore Ja'Naisha Carney, who almost dropped a double-double with 12 points and nine steals. That makes it three consecutive games in which Carney has scored at least a third of Westover's points. Jasmine Burns was another key player, putting up seven points in addition to five boards and three steals.
C.B. Aycock's loss came despite strong showings from Alonna Frederick and Madison Smith. Frederick posted eight points along with nine rebounds and three steals, while Smith put up nine points and five boards. That's the most steals Frederick has posted since back in December of 2023.
Westover is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 17-11 record this season. With the defeat, C.B. Aycock broke their six-game winning streak and moved their record to 19-6.
Westover has already played their next game, a 50-35 loss against Fike on the 28th. C.B. Aycock does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
