Undefeated Holy Innocents’ is headed to Macon, after another dominating performance
The Bears dominated cold-shooting Darlington in a 46-20 win, Monday at Kennesaw State.
Holy Innocents’ (29-0) will face SACA on Saturday in the Class A Private championship game in Macon. The Bears have won their three playoff games by an average margin of 33.3 points.
Freshman point guard Khayla Pointer had a game-high 13 points and had a hand in almost every Holy Innocents’ basket. She had several steals that led to breaks and finished them off with either a perfect no-look pass or a layup of her own.
“She’s a special player,” said Bears coach Tony Watkins.
These two teams played in January with Holy Innocents’ winning 57-50. But Monday’s game was never in doubt. The Bears led 14-4 after the first quarter and 28-9 at halftime.
Erika Cassell had 11 points, and Shai Blanding added six for the Bears.
Keara Evans, Maggie Beth Atha and Ashley Edge each had four points to lead Darlington.
