Washington) started out a little rusty but picked it up using her body and power in the post and displaying her range. Arkela Jones (Overton) showed her point guard abilities and court awareness. Cristyn Hopper (Arlington) and Candis Clear (East) showed their 3 point range. Jasmine Taylor (Central) was all over the court rebounding, passing from the post position, and shooting the 3.
