Westminster Christian opens with win
Kinsley Donahue and McKayla Hays scored 11 points each Tuesday night as Westminster Christian’s girls basketball team opened the season with a 46-40 win over Sandwich at the Somonauk Breakout Tournament.
Libbie Atchinson added 10 points for the Warriors, who opened up a 23-14 lead by halftime and maintained it throughout the second half.
Westmont 46, St. Edward 38: Leading 31-29 entering the fourth quarter, St. Edward couldn’t maintain the advantage and fell in its season opener. Clarissa Ramos had 16 points to lead the Green Wave, while Katie Swanson added 9 and Victoria Walschot 8. The Green Wave played without injured senior guard Rena Ranallo (ankle).
“We played well for the first game,” said Wave coach Michelle Dawson. “In the fourth quarter Westmont made a run and we just couldn’t get our shots to drop.”
