The Blue Dragons had their first bye week of the season this past Saturday. They last played one week ago and earned a 66-53 victory over Coffeyville in a battle of KJCCC unbeaten teams.
Hutchinson hit a season-high 15 3-point field goals - three each from Kahlen Norris, Landon Forbes and Katie Duncan - to jump out to a 35-13 at halftime lead. Norris had 13 points to lead the Dragons while Hailey Jackson had 12 and Duncan scored 11 points.
The Blue Dragon defense limited Coffeyville to 2 of 27 shooting in the opening two quarters. The Blue Dragon defense has now held four consecutive opponents to less than 30-percent shooting and 23 turnovers per game.
Garden City's last game was a 56-48 home loss to Coffeyville on Saturday. The Busters shot 31.0 percent and turned the ball over 23 times. That loss snapped a four-game winning streak for Garden City.
Wednesday's game will feature two of the Jayhawk's top three scorers in Blue Dragon sophomore forward Hailey Jackson and Garden City sophomore guard/forward Antonicia Moultrie.
