Box Score
MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – The Georgia College Women's Basketball team (1-3, 1-3 PBC) dropped a hard-fought 58-48 battle to Young Harris College (1-0, 1-0 PBC) Monday afternoon in the Centennial Center.
The Bobcats forced a solid 20 turnovers, but couldn't capitalize on the extra possessions as baskets were hard to come by.
Junior guard Harper Vick (Marietta) led all scorers with 17 points, her second double-digit scoring effort of the season. She also distributed well, adding five assists to just three turnovers.
Freshman Alexis Figures (Buford) responded well to her first career start, and was second on the team with eight points. Classmate Jada Warren (Norcross) added 11 rebounds to lead the team, also in her first career start. She chipped in seven points.
GC started out strong and led at the end of the first quarter by a pair, 12-10. The second and third frames both belonged to the Mountain Lions, and they rode that advantage the rest of the way.
YHC out-shot the Bobcats 39 percent to 27 percent from the floor. The Mountain Lions also hit 92 percent of their free-throws, going 11-for-12.
