Tuesday’s games ….

CONCORD — After four minutes, West Rowan’s girls basketball team had 25 points in the scorebook and all five starters had contributed.

That’s a pace for 200 points.

The Falcons slowed down a bit after that, but they pummeled Concord 91-28 for another lopsided South Piedmont Conference victory.

Eleven players scored for the Falcons (6-1, 4-0), who basically turned the game into a layup line with their pressure defense. They took very few outside shots, scoring continuously with point-blank 2s.

The second half was played with a running clock. West had 70 points with 5:35 left in the third quarter.

Lauren Arnold had 11 points in the first three minutes and scored 17. Emma Clarke had 14. Also in double figures were Tiara Thompson with 12 and Mya Edwards with 11.

Christmas tournament seeds are based on pre-Christmas records. West will be the No. 2 seed for the event behind unbeaten A.L. Brown. West will play No. 7 seed South Rowan in the first round.
