Chester's Lexi Mott (33), a senior forward, was happy during 1st half action when it was announced that she had just broken the Chester High School All-Time Lady Jacket rebounding record. Mott came into the game with 842 rebounds and needed just one rebound to tie the school record of 843 rebounds set in 2022 by Alyssa Seymour. Seymour set the record during the COVID-19 Pandemic when the Lady Jackets played a limited season. Lexi Mott not only tied Seymour's record but broke that record during second quarter action.

Lexi Mott no solo empató el récord de Seymour, sino que también lo superó durante la acción del segundo cuarto. Al medio tiempo, Mott había acumulado un total de 845 rebotes y atrapó varios más durante la segunda mitad. ¡Felicitaciones, Lexi Mott! Foto de Jim Beers
