\nsecond-leading scorer and top rebounder commands a lot of attention, and that
\ngives opportunities for other players to step up.<\/p>\n
\nCrawford knocked down nine 3-pointers as a result while running away with a
\n57-33 victory in a battle of N10 girls basketball co-leaders Saturday at Mac
\nMorrison Gymnasium.<\/p>\n
\nfirst quarter to build a 20-8 lead and added four more in the third quarter to
\nput the game out of reach with a 48-24 lead going into the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n
\nscorers and rebounders, we wanted to focus on that,\u201d Wynford coach Amy
\nTaylor-Sheldon said. \u201cThey hit some big 3s early. We tried not to get
\ndiscouraged. We hung in there. That was good. Then tried to change the tempo a
\nlittle bit, didn\u2019t get much out of that. Their one through seven stepped up,
\nhit some big shots, made some big defensive plays.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nfollowed with one of her own. Another bucket by Dur\u00e9 made it 8-0 in the first
\nthree minutes.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.dailychiefunion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Caroline-Sheldon-drive.jpg\")

Wynford\u2019s Caroline Sheldon gets to the basket for two points in the first half Saturday against Colonel Crawford. Sheldon scored 14 of her 16 points before halftime in the Royals\u2019 57-33 loss.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n
\na 3-pointer that made it 15-4, and after four straight points by Caroline
\nSheldon, Claire Smith connected from long range with a friendly bounce to put
\nthe Eagles up a dozen.<\/p>\n
\nCrawford coach Zac Bauer said. \u201cRobin\u2019s so magnetic offensively that when she
\nis posting, there\u2019s so much attention drawn to her that maybe they hold the
\nmidline a little bit longer than usual. That allows her to catch a post feed,
\nand she was so unselfish in skipping the ball and finding girls that make 3s.\u201d<\/p>\n
\ndistance for a while, scoring all eight of their first-quarter points. She had
\n14 points in the first half but finished with only 16 in the game.<\/p>\n
\n24-18, and it trailed 28-20 at halftime.<\/p>\n
\nwas too much in the third. It made four straight, one each by Lily Alberty and
\nRedman and then two by Dur\u00e9. That flurry of shot-making extended an already
\n14-point advantage to 24 points.<\/p>\n
\nthat consistently all year,\u201d Taylor-Sheldon said. \u201cThat was tough, so we tried
\nto make some adjustments to make them go a little bit faster. We just weren\u2019t
\nvery consistent, but we had a great effort. Our kids played hard. Coach Bauer
\nhad a great game plan, and their kids stepped up.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nrebounds and six assists, while Dur\u00e9 had 12 points and three steals. Ehmann had
\nnine points and 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n
\nthe Royals defense, the Royals did not. No Wynford players besides Sheldon
\nscored more than six points. With Sheldon shut down in the second half, the
\nRoyals scored just 13 points in the final two quarters.<\/p>\n
\n:She\u2019s good enough that she seizes that opportunity and she can make those
\nshots in half a second. We weren\u2019t really ready for the first half. I thought
\nwe were better in the second half at staying longer.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nincluding 9 of 23 (39.1%) on 3-pointers, while Wynford was 11 of 37 (29.7%) on
\nall shots and 3 of 16 (18.8%) from long range.<\/p>\n
\nturnovers, 16-9.<\/p>\n
\nwhen you play Crawford is managing the physicality of it, and sometimes that
\ngot the best of us,\u201d Taylor-Sheldon said. \u201cWe played super hard, just missed
\nsome shots. There\u2019s still a lot of season to try to hang in there, execute as
\nbest as we can, defend as best as we can and get ready for the next game.\u201d<\/p>\n
