Cy Woods "Big Three" go off as they face Manvel today


Sometimes things just seem to work out and although Cy Woods was my preseason pick to represent R3 in 5A, that was before I saw Manvel go completely off at the Greater Houston Invitational. Cy Woods had a few setbacks, one big one along the way as 6'8 post Nancy Mulkey has battled injuries throughout the season but last night she gave a performance worthy of the nickname I threw on her, "The Incredible Mulk"

How about 23/10 plus a few blocks, deflections and altering. How about Olivia Ogwumike going off for 17/9 and the baby of the Ogwumike sisters Erica, adding 12 points and 18 while the most dominant player to have played in this area, older sister Nneka, was in the stabds watching. Tyler Davis came through wiith some "Miss Excitement" knocking down a couple of threes and chipping in 10 points but Mulkey definitely was the difference

 Miranda Lejune put on a show for Pearland, no stats in the paper and I wasn't smart enough to keep em, so I'll wing it and say she had between and 15 and 20. Laneetra Guillory and Keara Hudnall also scored in double digits and closed out their careers not like they wanted but back to back area semi's is pretty impressive in itself
