Lady Warriors swamp Railers
Marion High School girls started slowly Friday but eventually swamped Herington by the score of 41 to 28.
Marion had only five points in the first quarter, a bucket each by Ashley Secrest and Brandi Peterie, and a free throw by Stacia Williams.
But they outscored Herington 14-6 in the second quarter and 12-2 in the third to put the game out of reach.
Peterie led Marion with 17 points, hitting seven of eight from the field. Krista Zogelman had 12.
The score could have been worse. Marion hit only five of 12 from the free-throw line while Herington went 14 of 20.
The freshman girls placed second this past week at a tournament in Council Grove. They defeated Wamego, 52 to 31, and Sterling, 61 to 48, before falling in the title match to Olpe, 35 to 41.
Leading scorers against Wamego were Sarah Williams, 13; Amber Richmond, 12; and Leann Thomas, 10. Top scorer against Sterling was Richmond with 17, followed by Molly Rhodes, 16, and Williams, 12. Williams and Richmond each had 10 points against Olpe.
