Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Greenwood walked away with it. They walked away with a 43-30 win over the Millville Quakers on Saturday. Given the Wildcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 212th, while the Quakers are ranked 425th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Millville's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Larissa Evans, who posted 11 points along with seven boards and six assists, and Ayla Boyunegmez, who put up seven points and six rebounds. That was a full 36.7% of Millville's points, marking the 20th time in a row Evans has had more than a third of the team's points.
Greenwood has been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine games. That's provided a nice bump to their 20-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 29.2 points on average over those games. This is the second loss in a row for Millville and nudges their season record down to 15-10.
As of now, neither Greenwood nor Millville have any future games scheduled.
