She hit 3-pointers. She rebounded. She passed the ball. She blocked shots. She even sold popcorn at halftime.

Well, four out of five ain’t bad.

Dani Franklin put on a dazzling do-everything performance for the Washington Warriors Friday night, collecting 27 points, four rebounds, four assists, four steals and two blocks in a gritty 59-52 win over Prairie at the Warrior gym.

“That’s funny,” Franklin said when asked if she sold popcorn at halftime. “I haven’t heard that one before.”

‘Best friends’ spark Warriors to win

Fri - 03 Jan Written by Carl Gonder

You might call them the Ying and Yang of Washington Warrior basketball. Danielle Franklin and Aleena Hobbs seem to go together like peanut butter and jelly. Or something like that.

Friday night at the J-Hawk gym the long-time best friends combined for 51 points in a hard-fought 67-59 Warrior win over the up-and-coming Jefferson J-Hawks in Mississippi Valley Conference girls play.

No. 10 Washington moves to 6-2 overall and Jefferson drops to 3-6.

Hobbs, a drive-to-the-basket-slashing forward, had 23 points and eight rebounds. Franklin, a silky-smooth shooter, had 28 points and seven rebounds, despite getting into early foul trouble.
