Galbiati leads White County past Gilmer

CLEVELAND - With standout guard D.J. Galbiati under the weather, White County girls basketball coach Laura Burkett knew it would be a battle Tuesday night against Gilmer County, despite the Lady Bobcats being winless in Region 7-AAA North play.<br> <br> She was prophetic as the Lady Warriors needed a 22-9 surge in the fourth quarter to finally shake off Gilmer in a 54-37 win.<br> <br> &#34;D.J. wasn&#39;t feeling good and that hurt us most of the game. We just let (Gilmer) hang around too long,&#34; Burkett said. &#34;We finally came alive in the fourth quarter but we haven&#39;t been playing up to the level we were at early in the season. We&#39;ve done just good enough to win the last three games.&#34;<br> <br> Galbiati didn&#39;t seemed fazed much by her sickness pouring in a game-high 23 points. Molly McDonald added 14 for White County (11-7, 5-0) which has won four straight and 6-of-7 games since the Christmas break.<br> <br> The Lady Warriors will travel to North Hall Friday in a key subregion game. The two teams have split two meetings already this season.<br> <br> Lindsay Weissinger led Gilmer (1-16, 0-5) with 17 points.
