Nandua coach Breonna Evans said, “Angel is a very versatile player. She has the height of a center, the ball handling abilities of a point guard, and the scoring abilities of a shooting guard. Angel was vital in running our offense this year as well as a key defender.” Thornton led the Ponies in scoring as a freshman with 110 points.

She is always doing whatever it takes to make herself a better athlete. She is a true team player.” Erica Head started every game for Northampton and played over 90 percent of the minutes for the Jackets. 154 Market Street • Suite 1 • Onancock, Va.
