Girls’ varsity basketball pulls away in the second half with a 67-47 win, after a close first half against Nerinx Hall Jan. 23. Lauryn Miller, senior, led Kirkwood with 21 points, followed by Jayla Everett with 16 points. Right before half time, Nerinx began to pull ahead, closing in the lead the Pioneers had. “Honestly at half time I was just frustrated with myself,” Jayla Everett, junior, said. “When we came out in the second half, we were able to get some easy shots and I was able to relax a bit, and then my shots started falling. As a team, we were more positive in the second half, once our shots were falling and we had pulled ahead by so much.”
