WILLIAMSPORT — In just the seventh game of her high-school career, freshman Micah Wormack grabbed the second-most rebounds in a single game in school history as her 20 boards led Allegany to a 68-46 win over Jefferson on the opening day of the Williamsport Holiday Tournament on Friday.
Wormack added 15 points to her rebounding performance and was the main reason the Campers had a double-digit lead by the end of the first quarter. Rachel Wormack added 15 rebounds, eight points and four steals and Courtney Landis scored a game-high 19 points and seven steals.
Keke Paige scored nine points, collected six rebounds and handed out four assists. The Campers had a total of 52 rebounds as a team.
Micah Wormack’s 20 rebounds were one shy of the single-game school record of 21 set by her sister, Leah Wormack, in January of 2011.
Marissa Jones had 12 points for Jefferson (0-10).
The Campers (5-2) will play Williamsport today at 3 o’clock in the championship game. The Wildcats beat Berkeley Springs 43-34.
Hampshire 53
Buckhannon-Upshur 23
