JCC Women Improve To 9-2 On Season
The Jamestown Community College women’s basketball team made it five straight wins and nine of 10 overall with a 63-58 win over Sheridan College out of Canada on Saturday.
Things didn’t start great for the Jayhawks, falling behind 11-2 less than three minutes into the game.
Jamestown CC closed the opening quarter on a 14-2 run to take a 15-13 lead to the break. Freshman Andrea Johnson scored all four of her points during the comeback.
The second quarter mirrored the start of the first, with Jamestown CC dropping those 10 minutes 11-4 to trail 24-19 at the half.
The second half belonged to Jamestown High School product Alyson Canfield, who scored a game-high 27 points. Her layup and foul for a traditional three-point play evened things up at 30-30. The 27 were a new career high the freshman.
Jamestown CC trailed by a pair entering the fourth quarter, where a 3 from Canfield made it 48-46, and the Jayhawks never looked back.
Jennica Berens and Mbali Mhlanga joined Canfield in double-digits with 12 and 13, respectively.
Mhlanga also pulled down 12 rebounds for a double-double. The win moves Jamestown CC to 9-2 on the season.
The Jayhawks are right back on the home court Wednesday when they host Cuyahoga CC at 5 p.m.
