GIRLS SOCCER BOYS BASKETBALL Columbia rallies to OWENS RISES UP remain unbeaten Garner scores game-winner in 72nd minute to lead CHS to 5-3 win over Oak Hall.

By JORDAN KROEGER [email protected]

Ella Degner shoved Ana Caballero to the ground. The referee blew the whistle and Kirsten Garner swung into action. With the match tied in the 72nd min- ute, Columbia’s forward quickly grabbed the ball, placed it and slammed her foot into the shot before Oak Hall’s defense could get set. It was a perfect kick, right into the corner of the net and out of the reach of Maya Harris’ outstretched arms. It was also Garner’s third straight hat trick to put the Lady Tigers ahead for good and they went on to beat the Lady Eagles 5-3 at home Tuesday night.

This time, she was on the money when her team needed her most. Owens powers CHS “I knew they weren’t ready,” Garner said. “I had a free kick before that and it just went a little to the left. They weren’t past Santa Fe, Ross set up and I knew they weren’t going to be set up again so I just tried to go quickly for a 73-55 victory because I knew they were taking awhile to set up.

The Tigers caught fire from that point on, going on a 21-4 run to pull away with a 73-55 win and move to 3-0 on the season. “That run was catalyzed by defense,” CHS coach Steve Faulkner said. “They were at the line with a chance to take the lead at 41-40. Charleston (Ponds) and Kenney (Gaines) were in foul trouble, so we had kind of a makeshift group on the floor. “It’s a group of guys that really don’t focus on scor- ing the ball. They’re thinking more about how to get stops. And they did a really good job of that.” Point guard Darrion Jones led the Tigers with 20 points and Marcus Owens had a monster game down low. The senior center finished with a double-double, scoring 19 points and grabbing 12 rebounds. “Marcus Owens came up big. He played great,” JORDAN KROEGER/Lake City Reporter Faulkner said. “He’s been up and down lately, but I Columbia’s Kirsten Garner chases after think he’s starting to turn the corner.
