Kennedy girls get revenge against Wash
As soon as the Kennedy girls figured out early Friday night that they could handle Washington’s pressing defense, well, there was no stopping them.
The Cougars finished off the first quarter on a 10-0 run and just kept pouring it on in a 67-35 rout on the Warriors’ home court.
“We were really pumped tonight,’’ said heady Kennedy forward Linden Runels. “Wash is a good team, but we wanted to get them back for the last game at our place.”
Washington won that one 53-46 back in mid-December when the Cougars suffered one of their rare poor shooting performances. This time around they were running on all cylinders.
“We were really good on the boards,” Runels noted.
