JOHNS CREEK — Mary Henner and Jenna Staiti were unstoppable in the paint. The senior and freshman duo combined for 44 points and 25 rebounds to help West Forsyth pick up a thrilling 58-55 overtime win over the Gladiators at Johns Creek High School on Tuesday. "What really got us going is when we were down seven to start the fourth quarter and we realized that if we lost this game we’d match up with Alpharetta [in the region tournament], who beat us by 50 last time," Henner said. "... We felt we had the momentum and had [the game] going into overtime."
