Johnstown cruises past Mayfield, 67-37
The Leader-Herald/Bill CainJohnstown’s Rebecca Kosowicz (40) grabs a rebound against Mayfield’s Jessie Brower during Monday’s non-league game in Johnstown.
JOHNSTOWN — A little more than halfway through the first quarter, the Johnstown subs started coming in, but the level of play never dropped. Roughly half Johnstown’s points came from the bench in Tuesday’s 67-37 non-league win against Mayfield. The reserves accounted for 33 points, with two of the three Lady Bills in double figures coming off the bench. “We work on it in practice a lot,” Johnstown’s Kendra Cooper said. “We have a lot of girls so we can scrimmage each other and run offenses to learn what to do. When it comes to game time, we can use our bench like using a regular first team.” When Cooper doesn’t start, as was the case Tuesday, she’s one of several options coach Tim Derwin has for the sixth “man,” or the first player off the bench. In a reserve role against Mayfield, she netted 13 points. Chelsea Goodier came off the bench to score 11 and swipe six steals.
