Women’s Basketball: Joseph Hits 20 for 2nd Straight Game, Eagles 2-Points Short
For the second time in as many games, Kirsten Jospeh scored 20 points, but a late comeback effort fell just a bit short as TBC Eagles Women's Basketball finished 2024 with a terrific effort at Southern Crescent Technical College in Walterboro, Georgia. The Eagles rallied in the fourth quarter, but SCTC held on for the 62-60 win.
Joseph joined the active roster on Thursday, and after scoring 21 in her first game, she nearly repeated that performance with 20 on Saturday. Jospeh was 7 for 10 from the field, including a three-pointer, and 5 for 9 at the line. She also had 4 rebounds and 4 steals for the Eagles.
In her two games thus far, Joseph has scored 41 points on 68% shooting (15-for-22).
Trailing 50-40 at the end of the third quarter, TBC outscored SCTC 20-12 in the fourth but came up two points shy of tying the game.
Ranajala Brown scored 18 points for a total of 31 in the two-game trip. Brown was 6 for 8 from the field on Saturday, including a pair of threes, and added 4 foul shots.
Reniyah Clark sank 9 free throws and 4 deuces to amass 17 points (31 in the two games) while Victoria Broadway finished Saturday's contest with 3 points and Jaedin Houston scored 2.
Southern Crescent Tech got points from all 8 players with three hitting double digits: Jaylah Jones (14), Luv Llewellyn (12), and Traymori Jones (11).
After Christmas break, the season will resume with a 6:00 p.m. EST tip-off at Florida State College at Jacksonville on Tuesday, January 7. South Region play then begins on January 14 when the Eagles host #1 and defending national champion Pensacola Christian College.
