BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Asha Bell netted 41 points and had three three assists and seven steals as the Panthers improved to 5-0 in the PSAL 3A with the easy win on Thursday.
All seven Panthers got into the scoring column. Sabrina Defazio directed the offense, dishing out six assists while adding 10 points of her own. Forwards Jade Perez and Mackenzie Terry combined for 20 points, providing consistent inside scoring and strong rebounding.
Petrides 40, Lafayette 35
BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Two nights earlier, the Panthers grinded out a hard-fought league victory, behind Terry’s team-high 23 points.
Terry took over offensively, scoring nine of Petrides’ 11 fourth-quarter points.
The game featured constant momentum swings, with neither team able to build much of a lead. Entering the fourth quarter tied, Petrides delivered when it mattered most. The Panthers strung together a decisive 8–0 run late in the final period.
“We switched our defense going into the fourth quarter, and that led to key defensive stops,” said Petrides head coach Jenn Delahanty. “The defensive switch forced turnovers and limited second-chance opportunities.”
