12/19/25 Basketball: McDonell Lady Macks 55, Eau Claire Regis 40

On the road in a battle of two teams unbeaten in conference play, the Lady Macks (7-2, 5-0 Western Cloverbelt Conference) played with a quiet confidence against the Ramblers (8-2, 4-1 WCC), who gained an early lead but then struggled to score against the McDonell defense.

Leading by five at the half, the Lady Macks continued to tighten the screws defensively, forcing turnovers and scoring in transition. Though Regis started to heat up from beyond the arc, McDonell created enough separation to withstand the barrage, pulling away and vaulting themselves into sole possession of first place in the conference standings. 


WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Junior forward Anne Siegenthaler finished with 18 points, fellow junior Claire Ruf was close behind with 16, and junior guard Erin Siegenthaler played suffocating defense and also hit four big threes to add 12 points.
