The Cerro Coso women's basketball team improved to 6-2 on the season
with a 66-55 win over Cuyamaca Monday night in San Diego, but the win
was costly.
Redshirt freshman Brenda Cantrell, who sat out last year due to knee
injury, reinjured the same knee early in Monday's game.
“It's a severe blow to our program,” said Coyotes Head Coach Tom Heck.
“Brenda is a great floor leader and such a quality individual to have on
this team.”
Cerro Coso started slowly, falling behind by 11 points early in the
contest before rallying to take a 29-27 halftime lead.
Dar'Shelle Lynch was the team's top scorer, picking up 19 points, and
holding Cuyamaca star Brittany Barnes to just eight points.
“We played a box and one and Lynch did a great job limiting her
touches,” Heck said.
Angel Lash added 18 points and 12 rebounds, while Brittany Graybill
picked up 10 points and eight boards. Ashley Logan scored eight points
for the Coyotes, while Kaylina Abeyta and Felicia Miller added four
apiece.
The Lady Coyotes will face Barstow tonight in a Foothill Conference game
at Cerro Coso. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m.
