Allentown – through his career with the Trenton High Varsity basketball team, Jamirah Glanton has always been known as a sophisticated protection player. This season, it shows the opposition how good it can be at the other end of the floor.

Tuesday at 5 feet-6-function-6 senior guard/forward Glenton led the tornado in scoring for the 12th time from her senior campaign. Five of these points came in a decisive fourth quarter to help the 11th Trenton seeds upset the sixth-semen Altennown, 45-39, in the opening round of the colonial valley conference tournament.

With the victory, Chief Coach Aya Carter 10-12 Club moves to the quarterfinals on Thursday to play in the third-seed notre Dame at 5:00 pm, 12-6 Irish Irish wins 14th Lawrence High seeds, 52-23, yesterday.

“Even last year I was more than a protected player. I really worked on my crime this year, “Glenton said after led by all players in the game with 13 points on Thursday. “I believe that the biggest difference in my game this season is more competitive. This is something that is different with me and the team. “

The tornado rose to the occasion against the Redbirds Squad, which was missing from their six adults, who are on a senior trip to the world of Disney this week. Both teams had noticeable changes, but since Trenton still played his traditional ball pressure game, it was difficult for Dana Wales’s Green Group’s main coach to take the shots.

“This game was definitely very nervous,” A’Town Makayla Rondinelli’s 5-foot striker said A’Town. “Trenton is always a good rebound and defense team. They operated a triangle and two (defense), face security (5-1 sophomore) Lily (Derow) and me. The team we had on the floor had never played together, so the nerves played in it for great time. “

11-10 Redbirds did a great job by masking their worries in a tournament game, which included four ties and nine lead changes. In fact, the free throw of rondinelli (12 points, nine rebounds) with 1:51, left in the fourth quarter, tied the score at 39 before visitors scored the last six points.

“We were most worried about their shooters, so everything we worried about was the defense,” Glenton said. “We did not know that their elderly people would not be here. Most teams look at our record and think we’re on a losing series, so they don’t give us any more chance. “

The tornado dispels these Natures by opening its largest lead, 20-12, in the second quarter before building its second largest margin by three minutes in the fourth quarter (39-32) when six feet of junior junior striker Oliva Darden (eight points, 11 fights) scored at one end before they collapsed into the other.

Then came Alontown’s most impressive noise when Derow (12 points) struck a pair of fake shots, freshman Savanna Barry scored theft, and junior striker Kaylin Croof (seven points) struck a float after another theft from the Aldown press to Take the home team within, 39-38, with 2:24 to play.

After the result was rotated, everything was Trenton through the rest of the road when junior guard Angie Pacheko (11 points) hit free throw, Glathon scored on a quick break, then senior guard Alia Smith contacted the last three points after Rondinelli Foulers outside with 28.2 seconds remaining.

Sophomore guard Madi Sullivan added six points, six rebounds and six thefts, but it was not enough to move to A’Town in the quarterfinals.

“Getting a win in the CVC tournament means everything to me because this is my last ride,” said Glenton, who heads to Brookdale Community College next year.

Glanton makes the most of this chance by turning his crime to match his defense this season.
