[DortonWildcat5]

One of the sloppiest, yet most exciting games I have seen in quite a while.  The first half was ugly with Johnson Central missing an opportunity to completely blow SV away.  SV played about as bad as possible in the first half scoring only 12 points.  Valley was actually down 12 points(28-40) instead of 16 going into the 4th quarter, but scored 30 points in the 4th.  Esther seemed to be in another world turning the ball over numerous times until the 4th when she took over the game.  She finished with 17 points, 11 steals, and 10 rebounds and came up big on the go ahead free throw(exorcising some free throw demons from the past for all the Dorton fans) with around 7 seconds left.  Both Sasha Stanley and Kayla Cantrell came up big at the end with huge 3 pointers.  Sally played really hard and Laura Perkins kept the Ladycats in the game until the rest of the team woke up.  The official stats had SV with 25 turnovers and Johnson Central with 33.
