Due to a number of circumstances, the JV girls basketball Wayne County Tournament was cancelled this season. In place of that, the Northeastern Lady Knights picked up a game against the Richmond Red Devils on Monday night. The JV Lady Knights hadn't played a game since December 20th and it took a few quarters to shake off the rust. Northeastern led just 18-10 at the half and carried just an 11 point lead heading into the 4th quarter thanks to a last second layup by Nevaeh Chapman. The Lady Knights were back to form in the 4th quarter outscoring the Red Devils 22-1 in the final frame behind great rebounding from Nicole Sheets and tenacious defense by Lexi Russell. Ariel Shuler 15 points Nevaeh Chapman 8 points Cami Angi 6 points Gracie Green 6 points Akailyn Hogg 6 points Brooklynne Adams 5 points Ti'Aja Adams 5 points Chloe Peters 3 points
