LITTLE ROCK CHRISTIAN
Lady Warriors on rebound
Little Rock Christian outrebounded Maumelle 49-37 in a 25-point victory on Tuesday night. Junior Adrianne Chambers and sophomore Reagan Bradley combined for 27 of the Lady Warriors' rebounds.
"They're both averaging a double-double," said Little Rock Christian Coach Ronald Rogers after the 65-40 victory. "But we've really been paying attention to rebounding because that's one thing that's hurt us in the past. We've really focused on blocking out and rebounding. This was a great effort for us."
Bradley, a 5-8 guard, finished with 28 points and 10 rebounds. Chambers, a 5-11 forward, scored 16 points and grabbed 17 rebounds.
Little Rock Christian (10-4, 1-0) will play at Little Rock Parkview (10-2, 1-0) in a 6A/5A-4 Conference game. The Lady Warriors have won four of their past five games; Parkview is on a nine-game winning streak.
