Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Bishop Ireton walked away with it. They simply couldn't be stopped on Wednesday as they easily beat the Trinity Episcopal Titans 75-41. The Cardinals have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 17 contests by 22 points or more this season.
Bishop Ireton had a senior duo take command as Nyla Brooks almost dropped a double-double with 21 points and nine boards and Amirah Anderson shot 42% from the field en route to 16 points and five steals. That's the most steals Anderson has posted since back in December of 2023. Another player making a difference was Kayla Washington, who went 6-for-9 to rack up 13 points.
Bishop Ireton smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 18 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least nine offensive boards in seven consecutive matches.
Bishop Ireton has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 26-6 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 71.6 points over those games. Trinity Episcopal's loss dropped their record down to 17-10.
Bishop Ireton wasted no time getting back out on the court and has already played their next contest, a 71-53 win against St. Anne's-Belfield on the 28th. Trinity Episcopal does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
