Lady Bobcats Handle Business in Home Opener Conference Matchup
Welcome to the kick start of the 2023-24 Women's Basketball season as the Bryant & Stratton Bobcats hosted the Fayetteville Tech Trojans in an early conference matchup.
The Bobcats came into this season having lost 10 player this passed season, so there would be some early questions needing to be answered if this years Bobcats team wants to have some of the same success as the last years team which finished in 1st place in conference last season.
In this game you could see the potential in this defense as the Bobcats halted the Trojans to just 4pts in the first quarter & just 27.1% from the field on the game. The lead the Bobcats would take in the first quarter would never be relinquished as the ladies had an answer for all of the Trojans efforts leading to a 12pt opening day Victory (52-40).
#31 Latanya Berry would lead the way for the Bobcats with her first career double-double (13pts, 11reb) and 4blks adding on to the teams great defensive performance.
The Bobcats now (1-0) will next travel on the road this coming Tuesday to face off against another conference rival in Johnston Community College (0-1) tipping off at 6pm.
