Brooklyn Center's Faith is 'exceptional'

January 31, 2012 at 10:10PM

Brooklyn Center's girls' basketball team doesn't have many victories, but the Centaurs have Faith, as in Faith Harmon.

Harmon, a senior center, showed off her all-around abilities in two games last week.

She posted 22 points, 16 rebounds, three blocks and three steals in a loss to Visitation on Tuesday.

She was even better three nights later in the Centaurs' third victory of the season, a 60-56 decision over St. Paul Academy. It was the first time they scored 60 points.

Harmon scored 24 points, grabbed 17 rebounds and had four steals and three blocks. She was 7-for-8 from the free-throw line and made a three-pointer.

"She has been exceptional this week," Centaurs coach Stephanie Zeitz-Crushshon wrote in an e-mail.

Notables• Maranatha Christian Academy of Brooklyn Park, the No. 1-ranked girls' basketball team in Class 1A, started this week on a 10-game winning streak.

• Mounds View's girls' basketball team started the week with the top record in the Suburban East Conference (10-1). The Mustangs get a chance to atone for their only loss as Roseville comes to town for a game on Thursday.
