Expert Analysis
Sam Duren | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
The senior lead guard would not be denied in an intense match up. Willard started out on fire from three, hitting deep set shots. But her game is not limited to just shooting, she’s a true two-way impact player. Who also lived at the rim on offense as the game progressed. On defense she has quick hands that allows her to record steals and also grab rebounds against a taller Tigers’ front line. When she got those boards, she was often pushing the tempo, either going coast to coast herself or setting up teammates.
Willard also has the clutch gene. In the closing moments, she drilled a tough three pointer to make it an one point game. Then a moment later she was fouled and hit both free throws to force overtime. Then who else to win it in OT? It was Willard with another slippery drive to the rim, where she would not be denied. This clutch performance punched the Lady Panthers’ ticket to this week’s Class B State Tournament.
