Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only the Hopewell Blue Devils walked away with it. They managed a 50-46 victory over the Tigers on Tuesday. Given Hopewell's advantage in MaxPreps' Virginia basketball rankings (they are ranked 76th, while Tabb is ranked 226th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Erin Edmonds continued her habit of posting crazy stat lines, almost dropping a double-double on 30 points and nine rebounds. That makes it seven consecutive games in which she has scored at least a third of Hopewell's points. Another player making a difference was Keeniya Kelly, who almost dropped a double-double on nine points and 11 rebounds.
Hopewell's victory bumped their record up to 17-5. As for Tabb, they have not been sharp recently as the team has lost five of their last six matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 10-14 record this season.
Hopewell didn't take long to hit the court again: they've already played their next contest, a 60-55 defeat vs. Lafayette on the 22nd. Tabb does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
