Winter Haven handled Sumner comfortably back in December, but this matchup looks different without leading scorer Hardy in the lineup. Sumner brings size, so Victoria’s length and physical presence will be key in controlling the boards and protecting the paint. She stepped up in a major way in the regional semifinal with 13 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 blocks, showing she can impact the game on both ends. If Victoria plays smart, physical, and anchors the interior, Winter Haven has a strong shot at returning to the state tournament.
