Athlete of the Week: Randi Conway
Randi Conway only scored three points in a tournament-opening win over Unatego last week. The next in the Kazalski Tournament finals, Conway stepped up her offense in the second half – especially the fourth quarter – scoring 12 of her 14 points in the second half leading her club to the championship over Marathon.
Conway added eight assists in the championship win, all more impressive since she played the entire tournament with a cracked bone in her elbow.
“(The decision) for Randi to play in the tournament was between her and her parents, and if she felt she couldn’t play, she wouldn’t,” said B-G coach Bob Conway, who is also Randi’s uncle. “She rested and iced it the day for the tournament, and the day of the first game, she wanted to give it a try.”
Randi Conway was a bit more reticent taking the ball inside against Unatego; instead, she directed the offense from the outside and staying out on the perimeter. “Even though she was playing injured, she still really controlled the game from the point,” Bob Conway said.
