SSCC Lady
Patriots Receive Victory
On Wed., Nov.
10, the Southern State Community College Lady Patriots’ basketball
team traveled to Wright State Lake. SSCC came out ready to play at
the start of the game, taking on an early lead with their tremendous
shooting and intense defense.
During the
second half of the game, SSCC found themselves in more of a
challenging position. Their shots were not falling quite as easy and
WSL’s increased pressure on the ball caused the Lady Patriots to
make a lot of unnecessary turnovers. "We warned the girls at the
half to take care of the ball and control the turnovers," said SSCC
head women’s basketball coach Glenn Burns. The poor ball handling on
the Lady Patriots behalf turned a 20 point game into a close 8 point
game. The Lady Patriots fought hard and held on until the buzzer
sounded, ending in a 78-71 victory for SSCC.
The stats for
