Blair Academy had to skate by with only a two-point margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the 55-point drubbing they dealt St. Mary's Ryken on Sunday. The Bucs claimed a resounding 81-26 victory over the Knights. The Bucs pushed the score to 62-14 by the end of the third, a deficit the Knights had no chance of recovering from.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Blair Academy to victory, but perhaps none more so than Mary Ganim, who went 8-for-10 en route to 20 points in addition to seven assists and six boards. What's more, Ganim also posted an 80% shooting accuracy, which is the highest she's achieved since back in December of 2024. Priyanka Ponnam was another key player, shooting 40% from the field on her way to 15 points along with five rebounds and five steals.
They weren't the only ones working in the assist department: Blair Academy was working as a unit and finished the game with 23 assists. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as St. Mary's Ryken only racked up five.
