Vilonia survived a barrage of shots before downing Little Rock Hall 67-42 in the opening round of the Class 5A girls state tournament Wednesday afternoon.

Sophomore McKenzie Floyd hit 3 three-pointers in the third quarter and finished with a team-high 17 points as the 5A-West champions turned a six-point game into a rout.

"We didn't shoot it very well in the first half, so I got the girls out here early before the second half to give them some time to shoot," Vilonia Coach Alvin Riley said. "We needed to get some shots down. We're a pretty good shooting team but we didn't look like it in the first half."

Vilonia (25-2) hit only 2 of 8 shots in the first quarter, but finished the game 22 of 41 from the floor.

Hall (8-17) struggled from the floor for most of the contest. The Lady Warriors missed their first seven shots, went 1 of 15 in the first quarter and shot 16 of 54 overall. Hall stayed close early by hitting the boards, collecting five offensive rebounds in the first quarter.

And Tyianna Robinson's 29 points and seven rebounds did not hurt the Lady Warriors' cause.

The junior guard hit a driving 5-footer to open the second half to cut Vilonia's lead to 26-20, but Vilonia scored the next points and eventually opened up a 52-29 advantage by the start of the fourth quarter.

"Hall is a big, strong team," Riley said. "They hit the boards hard. If you have an off-shooting night, it can lead to some trouble."

Vilonia, however, had too many weapons. Junior post player Paige Kelley scored 10 of her 16 points in the second half and also picked up nine rebounds. Sophomore Laney Mears hit 3 three-pointers and finished with 14 points. Sophomore Lauren Patterson scored nine points.

"We've got several girls who can shoot the ball," Riley said. "You just hope they're all not off on the same night."

Kataria Dismuke and Jada Johnson each added seven rebounds for Hall.
