Safe to say Laklin Shadix came to play this past week — and then some.

The West Point sophomore scored 21 points against Cold Springs, 16 points against Vinemont and 24 points against Boaz as the Warriors improved to 9-2 overall as of Dec. 7.

She accumulated those sensational numbers shooting 58 percent from the floor and 88 percent from the free-throw line.
