San Marcos Can’t Keep Pace With Unbeaten St. Joseph
St. Joseph Guard Avary Cain Scored 27 Points
A matchup with unbeaten St. Joseph got away from a shorthanded San Marcos High girls’ basketball team as the visiting Knights cruised to a 76-33 victory on Thursday night at the Thunderhut.
St. Joseph’s superstar junior Avary Cain exploded for 27 points, including 19 in the first half, and the Knights overwhelmed San Marcos with superior size and elite shot-making.
“We started out at a disadvantage. I have hurt players and sick players. I pulled up two girls from Junior Varsity, who have never practiced with us and never played with us. They didn’t know our offense or our defense,” said San Marcos coach Tiffany Simms. “I think effort-wise and heart-wise we did the best that we could do. We played from buzzer to buzzer regardless of the score, and that’s what I love about my team.”
