Lady Oilers (33-3) taking a 13-game victory streak into the Region III-6A tournament...
There’s nothing covert in their appearance, but Pearland’s Janae Tucker, Paige Bonner and Nyah Hardy somehow manage to attract little attention despite being on the court for almost the entirety of every Lady Oiler basketball game.Therein is where their anonymity lies, particularly on offense.
The winner faces Memorial or Summer Creek at 2 p.m., Saturday for a berth at the state tournament in San Antonio the following weekend. Because Pearland isn’t depth-rich, the Lady Oilers are judicious with their pressure and regularly fall back into their half-court defense.Pearland rarely allows fast-break points and consistently forces opponents to labor in their half-court offense.
