Beamers lead defense, Brooks boosts offense in Community girls 67-12 win vs Madison

The Community R-6 girls earned a decisive victory to open their Central Activities Conference schedule on Tuesday.

The Lady Trojans defeated Madison 67-12 after winning the second quarter 24-4 and being led by a Kylie Brooks double-double of 22 points and 10 rebounds.

Head coach Bob Curtis said the Lady Trojans (3-3, 1-0 CAC) had six steals in the second quarter to precede many transition points. He said sisters Peyton and Alyssa Beamer were a big reason why the defense was so strong as they each had five steals. Peyton finished with 12 points and five assists, and Alyssa had 11 points.

“The Lady Trojans’ pressure led to a lot of transition buckets with 24 points in the second quarter that was fueled by some steals at the top of the press with the Beamer sisters,” Curtis said.

Curtis said Brooks was a key weapon in the middle of the lane for Community’s half-court offense against Madison (0-5, 0-2 CAC). Jocelyn Curtis and Aaliyah Welch each added six rebounds as part of the Lady Trojans’ efforts on the boards.

Community played at conference foe Slater (1-2) on Friday night before hosting a conference game at 6 p.m. Tuesday against Sturgeon (2-3, 1-0 CAC).

Trojans beat Madison in paint for 79-24 conference victory

The Community R-6 boys were able to take the ball where they wanted to on Tuesday night.

The Trojans scored a majority of their points in the paint as they defeated Central Activities Conference foe Madison (0-5, 0-2 CAC) 79-24 in their conference opener.

“We were aggressive on offense and limited our turnovers, which led to us getting the ball in the paint to score a majority of our points,” head coach Kody Asquith said.

Aaron Carter led Community (2-4, 1-0 CAC) with 17 points, Mason Carroll had 14 points and Brant Cope, Clayton Jennings and Kyler Swaim each had eight points. Jennings pulled down seven rebounds.

Community traveled to conference foe Slater (2-4) on Friday night before playing another conference game at home at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday against Sturgeon (1-3, 0-1 CAC).
