McKayla Manor nailed four three-pointers and paced the Ladycats with 21 points in their 77-48 rout of Deming. PC stands 3-2 as they enter the holiday tournament season.

In a game that the Ladycats could have easily come in unmotivated and overlooking a depleted Deming squad, PC took care of business early and then coasted to a convincing 77-48 victory.

Deming whose team consists of two high schoolers and four middle schoolers must have felt scoring was coming from every player on the Ladycat team in the first half.

Heather Jolley scored 8 in the opening quarter but was joined by 4 teammates in the scoring column.

The Pendleton County Wildcats love putting on a good show for their home fans. They didn’t disappoint last Thursday, December 6.

The Wildcats scored 102 points in a 102-89 victory over Augusta.

“We played very well. We rebounded well,” Wildcats head coach Ed Cravens said. “Mason put up the ball very well for us.”

It was only a one-point game after the first quarter, 23-22, but Pendleton County scored 32 points in the second quarter and led 55-42 at halftime.

The Ladycats hosted Villa Madonna Academy and the Future Ladycats Recreational League on Thursday night in their home opener but for Villa, PC didn’t play the gracious hosts.  Rather they were as stingy as Scrooge holding the Lightning to only ten points in the second and third quarter combined as they built a 19-point lead and coasted to a 53-41 victory.

Ladycat Varsity Coach Scott Collins hosted a Christmas with the Ladycats for the kindergarten - second grade Future Ladycats and had a surprise visitor, the Wildcat mascot, that brought each girl a Ladycat stocking. Former Ladycats Gab Kirsch and Kristen Smith also helped with the event. Pictured with the Wildcat mascot are Julia Redden, Sadie Dalton and Madison Verst.
