Liberty's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Madison Henderson, who dropped a double-double with 12 points and 12 boards, and Natalie White, who posted eight points and three steals. Henderson continues to improve, besting her previous point total in each of the last three games she's played.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 62-22, which was the final score in Palmetto's tilt against Wren on Wednesday. While losing is never fun, the Mustangs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' South Carolina basketball rankings (they are ranked 245th, while the Hurricanes are ranked 107th).
