Franklin High School senior
Lindsay Simpson became the 10th Western North Carolina girls high school basketball player to score 2,000 points in a career.
Simpson accomplish the feat Tuesday night as Franklin beat visiting Pisgah, 61-56, scoring her 2,000th point just four minutes into the game. School officials halted play so Simpson could be photographed and presented the game ball.
“It’s a great milestone, and one I’ve been working for,”
Simpson said. “When you look at the list of the girls who have done this, there are a lot of great names. To be in the same category with them is a great feeling.”
Lindsay has signed to play basketball for
Western Carolina University next season.
