Lakes’ girls basketball team tightened up its defense and rebounded from an overtime loss to Antioch last Friday to get back in the win column Wednesday night.
Ashlee Cunningham led all scorers with 17 points, as Lakes defeated visiting North Chicago 59-45 in North Suburban Prairie Division action.
“Ashlee played her best game,” Eagles coach Pete Schneider said. “She is really coming along and working hard. She has more to give yet and it is fun watching her develop.”
Lakes (3-6, 1-3), which snapped a four-game losing streak, led 29-21 at halftime and was up 47-31 after three quarters.
Katie Brinser added 10 points for the Eagles, while Ashley Parmly and Amanda Smith each had nine.
“We know we can score, as we have put up good numbers offensively,” Schneider said. “We just have not played well defensively yet. We are working on it and are getting better. We know that playing the tough opening schedule would begin to help us.”
