On the final home game of the year, the Palomar women’s basketball team took one step closer to claiming its second Pacific Coast Athletic Conference title in three years.
In beating visiting MiraCosta College 79-36 on Feb. 18, Coach Leigh Marshall and her players showed the resilience of a veteran squad, with 12 of her 14 players scoring. Keisha Cox, the state’s No. 14 leader in points per game, led the team with 14. Other players in double figures were Jessica Scott and Mikaela Stanton (11 and 10 points respectively).
The team celebrated Sophomore Night before the game, paying hom- age to the eight sophomores on the team. Guards Cox, Lee Lee Tomlin- son, Tessa Balcom, Victoria Stewart, Daijon Sumpter and Andrea Hollins, along with forwards Ashleigh Barnes and Scott are all in their final seasons as Comets.
