Haren Scores Team High 17 for Leopards

Junior Brooke Haren scored from the field in every quarter for the Lady Leopards on her way to a team high 17 points. Senior Taryn Miglich also poured in 14 and freshman Taylor McCully added 11.

Miglich hit a pair of three-pointers in the first quarter as Louisville opened up a 14-0 lead at the onset. The Lady Leopards would have shutout the Spartans in the opening period if sophomore Sara Bero had not hit a buzzer beater to end the opening stanza.


Riccitelli Leads Spartans with Game High 18

The Spartans rallied again to shrink the Louisville lead to 42-40 with 3:43 left in the contest. That would be as close as Boardman would get as the Lady Leopards responded with a 9-4 run that was capped off by Miglich’s third three-pointer of the night from the right corner.
