Battle of the Best in Girls’ Basketball

SK vs. LasalleGirls Basketball vs. Lasalle Video

This Thursday, La Salle visits South Kingstown in what could be the biggest game of the season in Division 1 girls’ basketball.

South Kingstown (5-0) and La Salle (6-0) come into this week boasting undefeated records in division play. This game could decide the number one seed come playoff time.

The Rebels are led by 6-foot sophomore forward, Annie Lawler, junior point guard Meg Morrissey, and 6-3 junior center Alexandra Jones.

Lawler is the leading scorer in Division I-South with 14.1 points per game and dominates the paint on both ends of the floor.

Jones, arguably the tallest player in the state, is another solid force on the offensive end averaging 9.6 points per game.

Morrissey uses her quickness to get to the basket and pick-pocket ball handlers on the defensive end. Another offensive threat, she also averages 9.4 points per game.

La Salle returns a core of players from last year’s championship team and are off to another great start this year.

Coming off a victory Tuesday night against Toll Gate, the Rams have only won by single digits once this year.
