Fenway junior Tajanay Veiga-Lee reached her 1,000th point Tuesday night as she led the Panthers to a 67-17 victory over Boston Latin Academy.

Veiga-Lee completed the feat in only 46 games. She also racked up an impressive 24 points, 11 rebounds, eight assists and five steals in passing the milestone.

First-year coach John Rice said he was impressed with his team so far, adding that the Panthers have a real chance to go far.

Fenway will play Arlington Catholic Friday night.
