Holly Pond's Christian Couch looks to pass.

HOLLY POND — Madison Butts collected a game-high 16 points, 13 different Lady Broncos found the scoring column, and Holly Pond’s varsity girls improved to 6-7 overall (2-0 in area play) following a 68-13 victory over West End on Friday night.

The Lady Broncos outscored the road team a combined 47-3 in the second and third quarters to take full command of the matchup.

“I am proud of how the girls supported each other tonight,” Holly Pond coach Mary Hartline said. “On the court, they set their teammates up for success. And, when they weren’t on the court, they brought energy and cheered for their teammates.”

Emma Earl tallied 10 points, while Maggie Nail (nine), Jayden Persall (six), Maycie Black (five), Phoebe Jones (five), Alyssa Mitchell (four), Alana Phillips (three), Maddi Ham (three), Kamryn Tankersley (two), Ellie Burks (two), Samantha Giles (two) and Abbey Jones (one) also contributed for the Lady Broncos.

“I’m proud of the guys for getting to 2-0 in the area against a big, tough, well-coached West End team,” Holly Pond coach Cory Glasscock said. “It wasn’t the prettiest game at times, but in the end we did what we needed to do to win.”
