Overton at White Station Report January 30, 2009

Jasmine "Tootie" Robinson, Junior Guard, Overton













Overton headed to White Station as the leader of 15AAA district and played like they did not want to give up the title. But White Station had other plans! This was a battle from start to finish and when I say battle, it was a battle. It was extremely physical and a lot of energy was exhausted in the fight with both teams going deep into their bench. When it seemed one team had an advantage and momentum the other team would make a comeback.

Both teams had contribution from several players but 1 number stood out for White Station "2". That's the total number of points Kaitlin Murphy scored. Nothing seemed to fall for her. And Overton helped. Overton made sure someone was always in her face or forcing her to take rushed shots. Although Kaitlin only had 2 points, White Station still had opportunities to win.
