OHSAA Tourney Recap: Anna Long & Miamisburg Outduel Taylor, Troy

 OHSAA Tourney Recap: 

Anna Long & Miamisburg Outduel Taylor, Troy 

By Deon Cash


Anna Long has had a very good season, but this last win will be hard to topple.

Long, who is headed to college next year, took on Troy in the 1st round, who have Wright State commit Macie Taylor.  

And for a while, it looked as if Troy would get the win.

The Trojans held a 24-20 lead after halftime when the tide would turn on a Taylor foul, giving  her 4th foul. Miamisburg would then go on a run, taking advantage of Taylor on the bench as the Vikings caught fire and turned a deficit into a advantage that would be too much to overcome. 

Add the fact that Long caught fire, dropping a nice portion of her 30 points during the 2nd half.

While Raider bound Macie Taylor was equally unstoppable (27pts), her aggressiveness became her cryptonite, as she fouled out late in the 4th and just couldn't overcome the foul trouble. 

The Burg will face off against Springboro, a team they just faced a couple weeks ago at the end of the season.
