Loyalsock freshman Alaina Dadzie opened her high school career strong, so defenses started game planning around slowing the 6-foot forward. At one point, Loyalsock encountered teams playing a 2-3 zone seven straight games. The strategy behind the defense was simple: stop Dadzie and one can stop Loyalsock.
