Sampson girls basketball coach Robin Whitman stated, “I was not as pleased with our offensive play because we turned the ball over to often but we did recover some to still get the win. Hobbton is a scrappy team and gave us a good game. Now we will wait to see where we finish in the conference and get ready for the tournament. Our goal is to bring home that trophy.”
