After seeing Onalaska(4-4, 3-2) get out to a 12-3 lead, the Cards(1-7, 0-5) scored six straight to cut the deficit to three, before the Hilltoppers poured in nine unanswered and went to intermission leading CF, 21-12.
In the 2nd half the Cards raised their intensity and started to hit some shots, climbing within one at 38-37, with the ball. However, the Cards could only manage one more made free throw the rest of the way as they lost 46-38.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch: Seniors Brooklyn Sandvig and Ava Reuter led Chi High's 2nd half comeback, with Sandvig leading the way with 11 points and Reuter scoring 10.
Sandvig's back-to-back layups off steals helped the Cards cut Onalaska's five point lead to one, but they couldn't get closer than that.
