What’s more, Slater also posted a 67% three-point shooting accuracy, which is the highest she’s achieved since back in December of 2025.

Several Jaguars players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Emerson McDonald, who had six points.
Erie is on a roll lately: they’ve won 14 of their last 15 contests. That’s provided a nice bump to their 20-4 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 27.9 points on average over those games. As for Rock Canyon, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 13-10.
Looking ahead, Erie will challenge Highlands Ranch on Wednesday. That game will pit two of the most dominant guards against one another: Slater and Kimora Banks-Thomas. Rock Canyon does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
