Last night the White Tigers took down league opponent Orange Glen in convincing fashion with a 53-17 blowout. The score however was simply a side story as Senior Samantha Mowrey joined the 1000-point club, a benchmark that very few hit in their career.
Coming into the game Sam knew she was getting close but had no idea that she would hit it on this night. Her 1000 points came from a quick move into a layup that caused the whole gym to erupt with celebration. Unbeknown to Sam her family, friends, and fans had prepared for the night with signs and body paint. Coach Brinkman quickly called a timeout so that the moment could be celebrated and at the end of the game awarded Sam with her 1000-point basketball signed by all her teammates and coaches.
Sam becomes the second basketball player and first female basketball player in ECHS history to hit 1000 career points! She finished the night with 25 points and 16 rebounds. This incredible accomplishment was made possible by all her amazing teammates, coaches, parents, and fans! Thank you to everyone who has been in her corner supporting her over the years!
Well done White Tigers and Congratulations Samantha! Now let's go win League!
