Carroll had won eight straight at home dating back to last season, but on Tuesday they bumped up to 4-0 to make it nine. They secured a 55-50 W over the North White Vikings. The Cougars have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Vikings, too.
Carroll's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Kinleigh Randle led the charge by going 6-for-11 on her way to 22 points and four steals. Randle is also on a roll when it comes to three-point shooting accuracy, as she's posted one of at least 50% in the last three games she's played. Another player making a difference was Eliza Rinehart, who almost dropped a double-double with 15 points and nine rebounds.

North White's loss came despite a true team effort with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Ella Hunt, who shot 55% from beyond the arc to rack up 23 points in addition to seven boards and three steals. Hunt continues to improve, besting her previous point total in each of the last three games she's played. Katy Westerhouse also deserves some recognition as she scored her first points of the season.
