Mooresville Athletics

Columbus North beat Mooresville 75–60 in girls basketball, holding off a balanced Mooresville attack to win by 15. KJ Barton led the Pioneers with 16 points, and Millie Allison added 14. How it unfolded Columbus North controlled the scoreboard for most of the night and never let Mooresville close the gap. The Bull Dogs' 75 points were the difference, as Mooresville's offense kept producing but could not match Columbus North's scoring pace. Mooresville spread its scoring across several players, with three reaching double figures. That depth kept the Pioneers in the game, but Columbus North answered each push. Mooresville's lone cold stretch came in the second quarter, when it scored just 9 points. The Pioneers responded with 16 in the third and a 19-point fourth quarter, their best of the night. Mooresville leaders Barton paced the Pioneers with 16 points, Allison followed with 14, and Halle Moore chipped in 11. Esther Brimmage and Niah Craig each scored 4. Together, those five accounted for 49 of Mooresville's 60 points.
