The talented freshman guard came up with a huge performance in the Red Knights’ 59-49 victory over Blue Springs in the Missouri Class 5 state championship game last weekend in Columbia.
The 5’4” Bell scored a game-high 16 points, including a four-of-six performance from beyond the 3-point line. Bell also handed out six assists as she performed with the poise and savvy of a veteran senior under the glare of the state-championship spotlight.
Bell was largely responsible for IWA getting to the Final Four as she sank a 3-pointer at the buzzer to give the Red Knights a 48-45 victory over Fort Zumwalt West in the state quarterfinals at UMSL on March 5.
