Buccaneers overpower Paris en route to Region XIV road victory

Blinn freshman Elizabeth Walton tallied a team-high 17 points in the win

The Blinn College women's basketball team cruised to a 68-50 Region XIV road win over Paris Junior College on Wednesday in Paris, Texas.

The victory pushed the Buccaneers to 17-7 overall and 7-3 in the region standings.

"We played a great first half," Blinn head coach Jeff Jenkins said. "We still have to be able to put four quarters together both offensively and defensively in order to be good late, but it was still a good win considering we traveled five hours and defeated Region XIV opponent."

Freshman guards Elizabeth Walton, Ja'Nya Thomas, and Chelsy Singleton led Blinn's offense with 17, 13, and 10 points, respectively. Freshman guard Jonesha Neal added nine points.
