As their playoff quest began, the second-seeded Lady Macks (20-5, 14-0 Western Cloverbelt Conference) came out of the gate with fire and fury defensively, quickly overwhelming the Hilltoppers (1-24, 0-14 Dunn-St.Croix Conference), and roaring to 53 points by halftime.
In the second half, McDonell continued to substitute frequently, as every player dressed saw the floor. Ten Lady Macks entered the scoring column on their way to an emphatic, running clock victory.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Junior center Aubrey Dorn scored 17 points to lead the way for the Lady Macks, while junior guard Kylee Jensen tallied a season-high 15, and fellow junior Emily Thaler also achieved a season-high, finishing with 14. Senior guard/forward Marley Hughes was the fourth McDonell player to hit double-digits, scoring all 10 of her points in the first half.
