Democratic Advocate, January 18, 1924: Basketball - Blue Ridge College vs Westminster High

Basketball - Blue Ridge College vs Westminster High, January 18, 1924 Democratic Advocate

Basket Ball—Dropping in two pointers with regularity, the Blue Ridge College girls' basketball team easily defeated the Westminster High School sextet, 24 to 13 at New Windsor, Friday.

Clever shooting from the floor by Miss Garber and Miss McKinney spelled defeat for the younger lassies, who fought valiantly, but could not cope with the tight defense of the winners.

Miss Myerly found the net for three neat shots from the floor, while Miss Jones was a dead shot at the 15-foot line, making good on four of her five chances.

The winning combination is priming for the next battle, booked for February 1 with the Western Maryland girls at the New Windsor court.
