About this Article

Hersey's girls basketball team could do very little wrong in the first half Friday night at the Jean Walker Field House in Mt. Prospect. Calling it her team's best half of the season, Huskies coach Mary Fendley said "oh my gosh, everything just clicked." When the first 16 minutes ticked away, Hersey owned a 27-5 lead it never relinquished en route to a 45-34 victory over Prospect.
