For the third time this season, a WPIAL basketball player joined the 2,000-points club.
Chartiers-Houston senior Alexa Williamson accomplished the career milestone this week, joining East Allegheny’s Amani Johnson and Mars’ Robby Carmody, who reached the number last month.
Williamson finished Thursday’s victory over Fort Cherry with exactly 2,000.
