Upon hearing star freshman Azzi Fudd’s latest stat line, St. John’s Coach Jonathan Scribner only could shake his head.
“She had 36?” Scribner inquired after a 60-40 win over No. 10 Georgetown Visitation. “That’s crazy. She’s crazy.”
Scribner, along with the rest of those in attendance at Georgetown Prep, was treated to a 36-point performance by the 15-year-old, who knocked down 10 three-pointers.
It was Fudd’s third straight game with at least 36 points. Fudd didn’t play in the top-ranked Cadets’ 61-29 win over Carroll on Friday, but she scored 41 points in each of the Cadets’ previous wins over Good Counsel and Elizabeth Seton.
St. John’s improved to 18-1 as it extended its winning streak to 12. Georgetown Visitation dropped to 15-4.
While the Cadets ended up winning in a blowout, they started slowly and trailed 10-2 late in the first quarter. Fudd took over in the second, making four three-pointers as the Cadets led 28-25 at the half.
“I knew that was the turning point,” Fudd said, “and we weren’t going to let them back in the game.”
