On Saturday Marisa Gant made a splash, scoring 12 points along with seven rebounds and six steals. It looks like she has Lanphier's number considering she had a big game the last time she faced them, too. She's been particularly strong when it comes to steals, as the game was her fourth straight with two or more. On the year, Gant has averaged 17.3 points, 4 steals, and 5.1 rebounds per match.
Gant and Springfield Southeast will take on Taylorville at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Springfield Southeast will be headed into this one with a pretty big disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 242 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Gant? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
