In the championship game of the PeachStateBasketball.com Holiday Invitational, the Carrollton High School girls’ basketball team just ran out of steam in a 46-30 loss to Farragut, Tenn., for second place in the Silver Bracket on Saturday night at Holy Innocents’ in Atlanta.

Kenyata Hendrix was the only Lady Trojan (9-2) to reach double figures with 10 points, while Brooklyn Emory added eight points in the loss.

“They were just a really solid team in all facets of the game. I don’t really know, even if we played our best, if we could have beat them. We tried everything we could to keep it respectable,” Carrollton coach Shon Thomaston said.

“It was the championship game of that tournament, which we were glad to be a part of. We just ran into a really solid team in the championship game. I hated that we couldn’t give them a little bit more resistance or competition. That’s a team from Tennessee that came to Georgia. They were good, and hat’s off to them.”

Now Carrollton will have almost a week off before opening up Region 5-AAAA play at Columbus on Friday.
