WALTON – Coming into the weekend, Greene sat at a solid 10-7 overall record with a league record of 6-5. This placed the Greene girls as the seventh seed in the MAC tournament – which began the semifinal round on Friday, Feb. 10 – Greene traveled to Walton (sixth seed, 6-5 league record), a Friday night game in which the Trojans earned the win at 51-34.

The duo of Alyssa Sands and McKenna Sergi took the court by storm this past Friday, as the pair combined for 26 points in the contest – Sergi 14, Sands 12 – helping to lift Greene to the road win.

It wasn’t all smooth sailing for the Trojans, as the Warriors looked to defend their home court to the tune of an 8-8 ball game after the first period.
