With a playoff win on the line, Cherry Creek rose to the challenge on Wednesday. They really took it to the Columbine Rebels for the full four quarters, racking up an 83-38 win. The Bruins have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won eight matchups by 24 points or more this season.
Cherry Creek got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Braelynn Barnett out in front who went 7-for-10 on her way to 15 points and seven boards. Barnett is also on a roll when it comes to shooting accuracy, as she's posted one of at least 50% in the last three games she's played. London Taylor was another key player, putting up ten points and five steals.
Cherry Creek was working as a unit and finished the game with 22 assists. That's the most assists they've managed all season.
Taylor Speir and Jordyn Washington certainly did their best on Wednesday to avoid the loss. Speir shot 64% from the field to rack up 16 points, while Washington posted nine points.
Cherry Creek is on a roll lately: they've won 14 of their last 16 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 18-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.8 points over those games. Columbine moved to 18-7 with that loss, which also ended their four-game winning streak.
Looking ahead, Cherry Creek will challenge Pine Creek at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday. Both teams are headed into the matchup with plenty of momentum (Cherry Creek has won eight straight at home, while Pine Creek won six straight on the road), something that'll have to change. Columbine does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
