There was a seamless rhythm in how Haverford seniors Mya Foley, Megan Kelly, Natalie Wright and Rian Dotsey operated during Thursday night’s Central League clash with Upper Darby. It was clear they have a connection that’s difficult to replicate.
When they weren’t executing, making everything look easy, the seniors enjoyed moments of rest on the bench, a luxury granted by a lopsided 48-19 decision.
It was, after all, Senior Night and a chance to celebrate all they have achieved, savoring a brief respite before the road toughens. The Fords’ experienced core is on a mission to capture a third straight Central League championship.
Dotsey, a Saint Joseph’s commit, showed the way with 18 points, including 11 in the opening quarter. The All-Delco forward, who eclipsed the 1,000-point milestone this season, grabbed nine rebounds.
