Taylorsville Warriors (14-8) | 15 | 13 | 14 | 14 | 56 |
@ Cyprus Pirates (9-13) | 7 | 18 | 24 | 14 | 63 |
Cyprus narrowly lost by three points the last time it faced Taylorsville–a side that came into Tuesday night’s rematch sitting in second place in the Region 2 standings. Despite trailing by eight points after the first quarter, the Pirates rallied to secure a 63-56 upset victory on their home floor. Trailing by three points at halftime, Cyprus identified that Taylorsville was facing foul trouble, so it moved to a 5-guard lineup, which allowed it to attack from all areas on offense. The tactical change paid off, as the Pirates outscored the Warriors 24-14 in the third quarter. Cyprus’ Tamila Francis was the catalyst for the third quarter spark, scoring 14 of her 22 points in the third period. Amelia Echternkamp finished with a game-high 26 points (six made 3-pointers) for the Pirates. The win moved Cyprus to 6-4 in region play and 7-12 overall, while Taylorsville fell to 7-2 in region play (2.5 games behind first place West). “This win will move us up a bit in the RPI giving us a better matchup for the first round of the tournament. Also gives us momentum to finish strong with two additional wins against Kearns and Granger,” Cyprus coach JoBe Grayer said.
