NORWICH – Lady Tornado junior Sydney Coggins knocked down a 3-pointer on Norwich’s first possession of the contest and teammate Margaret Dougher followed up with one of her own to give the home team a 6-0 lead in the first 30 seconds of the game against Seton Catholic on Tuesday.
The quick advantage was one that Norwich held onto for the remainder of the contest as they went on to top the Saints 65-55.
The Purple Tornado used their hard-nosed pressuring defense to cause many turnovers for the Saints early but Seton pushed back as Norwich had several turnovers throughout the contest that the visitors capitalized on.
After the first quarter, Norwich held a 23-19 lead and held the same four point margin as the two teams went into the locker room.
