Josh Mobley’s Lynn Camp Lady Wildcats got a much-needed win at the right time on Saturday.
Led by Allissa Crumpler’s 13-point scoring effort, the Lady Wildcats (2-4) snapped a two-game losing skid by recording a 51-41 win over Thomas Walker, Va.
Lynn Camp was needing some momentum heading into next week’s slate of Middlesboro, Adair County, and Clay County.
Mobley received a balanced attack with eight players scoring in the win. Abby Mabe joined Crumpler in double figures, finishing with 12 points while Julie Moore, Lauren Partin, and Sayde Mobley each scored six points apiece.
The Lady Wildcats’ margin of victory could have been even better but they struggled from the free-throw line, hitting only 12-of-24 shot attempts.
Lynn Camp’s defensive effort was out on full display in the first quarter. Led by three points from both Mabe, and Crumpler, the Lady Wildcats built a 9-2 lead while limiting Thomas Walker to only one field goal in the first quarter.
Mabe added four points in the second quarter, allowing Lynn Camp to hold a 21-15 lead at halftime.
The Lady Wildcats outscored Thomas Walker, 30-26, in the second half to pull out the win.
Crumpler scored eight points during the final two quarters of play while Mobley connected with two key 3-pointers.
