The NCAA season may have finished but the Junior College season is still in progress and headed towards the business end of the 2021 campaign.
Hannah Wentworth was in fine form as Utah State Eastern College Eagles wrapped up regular season play with a pair of convincing wins against Southern Nevada in a double-header.
Hannah scored 22 points in an 84-59 victory and followed that with 20 in an 84-44 win. Across the two games the shooting guard shot 55% from beyond the arc nailing no fewer than 11 three-pointers – she leads the team in that statistical category making 39% to date this season.
The Eagles now head to the Region 18 Scenic West Athletic Conference Tournament this coming weekend taking on Southern Nevada in the first round.
Jordyn Maddix scored 12 points and Parehuia Delamere compiled 8 rebounds, 3 steals and 5 points as Western Texas defeated Clarendon 90-57.
Parehuia followed that with a stats stuffing 6 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and a block as Western Texas defeated Frank Phillips College at the Region IV Conference Tournament.
Williston State bowed out 91-73 in the Region XIII semi-finals going down 91-73 to Miles Community College.

Keeley Tini dropped 18 points and pulled down 9 rebounds as she fought valiantly to keep Williston’s chances alive.
