Lehman High freshman Makalya Coy led all scorers on the night by tallying 17 points. Lady Lobo senior Crystal Montoya finished with eight points while Maggie Castillo had six points.
The Rebels played an even keeled game and fired on all cylinders throughout the matchup.
All of the Lady Rebel passes were sharp and on target and they remained aggressive and attacked the ball consistently throughout the game.
Hays head coach Danny Preuss started an all senior squad in the first quarter of the game.
After the game, Hays senior guard Amanda Benjamin said “this was the best game that we’ve ever played against Lehman.”
Benjamin also said that starting an all senior squad brought back memories of her freshman year at Hays.
Preuss said that he was happy to be able to give all of his players some on the court time.
He said he was especially happy that he happened to have five senior players he could start on senior and parents night.
