It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Morgan had no problem doing just that on Friday. They breezed past the North Sanpete Hawks to the tune of 58-27. That's more bragging rights for the Trojans, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.
Morgan's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Alexis Burt, who posted nine points in addition to seven rebounds and six assists. Another player making a difference was Eva Birkeland, who earned 13 points.
Burt wasn't the only one working in the assist department: Morgan was working as a unit and finished the game with 17 assists. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as North Sanpete only six assists.
Despite the loss, North Sanpete still got an impressive performance from Elsie Bailey, who put up five points.
Morgan is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last nine matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 66.9 points over those games. North Sanpete dropped their record down to 7-17 with the loss, which was their sixth straight on the road.
Morgan will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Emery at 9:10 p.m. on February 24th. Emery will roll in looking for their fourth straight win, something Morgan surely won't give up without a fight. North Sanpete does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
