Hi Leo and Linda, my sincere condolences to you and the rest of the family on the passing of your daughter. I just got a WhatsApp message just moments ago that updated me on this very sad news.

May you all keep strong and cherish your daughter’s positive, kind, and fun memories for eternity.

So sorry, my brother and sister to hear of this very deeply sad news.

Ayala Able to Finish Off Upset

.....It should give Ayala (19-4) an idea of where it stands for the playoffs. For Troy (18-2), it’s the Warriors’ second loss this week after falling Monday to No. 3 San Clemente.

“If we don’t make free throws and rebound, we deserve to lose,” Troy Coach Kevin Kiernan said. “We won’t beat any good teams right now. We’re very soft.”

Ayala held a 32-28 rebounding advantage. They also made 18 of 35 (51.4%) from the field. Troy, which held a 43-38 lead after three quarters, had its chances but made only four of 11 free throws in the fourth quarter.

Alicia Komaki led Troy with 14 points, Nicole Hayman had 12 and Amanda Livingston 10.

But it was the play of Chandi Gilling that put Ayala over the top. Averaging eight points, Gilling scored 14, making seven of nine from the field, and was the perfect complement to the inside play of Kia Riley (18 points) and outside play of Brittany Sieger (12).
