Lady Royals Win
The Lady Royals’ Basketball team started their season this week in a pre-season tournament, hosted by Pace High School. On Tuesday, they faced Gulf Breeze and defeated the Dolphins, 51-43. Presley Hawthorne was the leading scorer for the Lady Royals, scoring 15 points, going 7/10 on the free throw line.
“We played well at times, but we’re not very consistent offensively. I thought we played well defensively,” first year head coach Jorey Diamond stated. “Aubreigh Nelson played well for us last night.”
