Hubbard led the Trojans with 17 points on 6-of-14 shooting from the field, which included connecting on four 3-pointers.Hobdy had a solid game as well with 13 points and eight rebounds. Charles Henderson was led in rebounding by Mileah Ward, who pulled down 12.“Size doesn’t matter; the heart matters,” Elder said. “We just kept pushing. If we play defense correctly and stop the lob and look for the charge off some of that, we’ll be successful.
With the score knotted at 22-22 at halftime, the third quarter was highlighted by some strong outside shooting.
