IUI l\appuiiuiM.v.v.... scrappy defensive play and offensive composure had been a key factor for RCHS. The little guard's presence was missed when she took the long walk to the bench after getting her fifth personal on a questionable blocking call.
With a slim three point lead, a rattled Panther squad began to miss the target, both on passes and shots from the floor. Clarke was unable to take advantage of the first four turn-overs but they finally connected on their fifth possession arising from a Panther mistake to sneak to within one, 51-50. The Eagles got the ball back on another traveling call against RCHS and with 43 seconds left, put the ball through the hoop to go ahead. 51-52.
Coach Teresa McLawhorn called time out to calm her girls down and plan strategy. But what it looked like they needed most—a rest from the fast and furious pace of basketball with seven RCHS players versus a bench crowded with 12 from Clarke — McLawhorn couldn't give them. Balls put up by tired arms rolled around and off the rim. Butler went to the foul line with lb seconds left but her attempt careened off and Weaver fouled on the fight for the rebound. The lanky Eagle center was successful on both tries to put the game out of reach. 51-55. Kim Settle managed to put up a final basket for the battling Panthers but time ran out for Rappahannock with the Eagles on top. 53-55.
High scorer for the Panthers was Jordan with 27.
