Ten times and counting.
Coupeville High School grad Makana Stone hit double-digits Tuesday, tabbed once again to the FocusHoops Team of the Week for her play on the hardwood.
The former Wolf, and current Loughborough University teammate Katie Januszewska, were among five players honored for their performances during Saturday’s Women’s National Basketball League playoff openers in England.
Stone, who finished with 19 points, nine rebounds, and three steals in a 72-63 win over Reading, came up huge in the fourth quarter.
Tossing in 11 points in the final frame, she led Loughborough on a 24-8 tear down the stretch, as the Riders turned a seven-point deficit into a convincing postseason win.
Now 13-5, Stone and Co. play CoLA Southwark in the WNBL semifinals this weekend, with a spot in the league title game at stake.
On the season, Coupeville’s progeny sits with 259 points, 224 rebounds, 33 assists, 57 steals and eight blocked shots.
