The Sonic Drive-In Player-of-the-Game for Tuesday, January 7, was Amou Ring of the The Rock (Gainesville) girls’ basketball team.
Ring scored a team-high 17 points as The Rock rallied from a 12-point deficit with under three minutes to play to defeat visiting Gainesville, 60-58.
The sophomore scored 11 of her 17 in the fourth quarter. She was 5-for-5 from the free throw line and made two critical technical foul shots late to help lead her team to victory.
This win showed us more than just the W. Congrats @_aaarriing on a great game and clutch shooting down the stretch! https://t.co/MGnoi7G7lb
