While the sports world anticipates the next recordKobe Bryant will set, a teenager from New York City snatched the spotlight this week. Epiphanny Prince is a senior guard for the Murry Bergtraum High School girls basketball team. She had established herself as a star player, but she really set the court afire Wednesday.

Wednesday Night her team won 137-32. Epiphanny scored 113 of those points! She made 54 of 60 shots.

It’s a new National High School record. The previous record holder was Cheryl Miller. Prior to the game, Prince’s highest scoring night was 51 points.

Epiphanny was named to the High School Basketball All Stars in 2005. Prince will graduate this year. She’ll be off to Rutger’s in the fall.
