North Meck looks to learn from loss

North Mecklenburg's girls' basketball team fell to Porter Ridge 67-46 in the N.C. High School Athletic Association's 4A western regional semifinals Friday night.

The Lady Vikings were outscored 14-4 in the opening four minutes of the game and couldn't crawl out of the hole. The I-Meck 4A regular-season champions finished their year 26-4.

"It doesn't diminish what we accomplished this year and the fact that we made that big turnaround from the year before and since I got there," said fourth-year North Meck coach Jennifer Baker.

Junior Destiny Barrino and sophomore reserve Jaydah Hayden led North Meck in scoring against the Pirates, tallying 14 points each.

Although the Vikings lose four seniors, Kelly Beasley, Jasmine Bullock, Jasmine Cash and Kelsey Ellison, Baker hopes the rest of her team learns from the program's first trip to regionals since 2008.

"You're dealing with a lot of kids who had never been here before. ... Now they know what it feels like," she said. "Hopefully, when they're presented with the challenge again, they'll step up and knock their opponent down."

With Barrino, whose 12 points per game led the team, slated to return alongside with fellow junior Brianna Jones and other young players, Baker hopes her team can carry this year's success onward.

"Our future looks bright," she said.

Huskies ousted by Olympic

Hough's run in the N.C. High School Athletic Association's 4A playoffs ended Thursday night, as the Huskies fell to nationally-ranked Olympic 75-55 in the regional semifinals.

Despite early foul trouble, sophomore Luke Maye led the Huskies with another double-double - 14 points and 10 rebounds. Drexler Clark had 11, while Theo Mack added 9.

The third-year Huskies finish their year 23-6.

North Meck's girls play tonight

Lake Norman-area teams haven't had much success this week, with Bandys' and Lake Norman Charters' girls as well as Hough's boys losing in their respective regional semifinals.

But North Mecklenburg's girls' basketball team will look to change that tonight. The Lady Vikings will face Porter Ridge at 7 p.m. at the Greensboro Coliseum Special Events Center for a chance to play in the 4A semifinals Saturday night.

Bandys ends season

Bandys' girls' basketball team fell to Pisgah 57-45 in Wednesday's N.C. High School Athletic Association's 2A regional semifinals to end its season.

The Lady Trojans had 18 points from Madi Story and 10 points and 10 rebounds from Sarah Goble, but that wasn't enough to overcome Pisgah.

Bandys finishes its year 27-3.

Knights end their season
