After earning a first-round bye in the WIAA Division 4 Tournament, the Lady Macks (23-2, 13-1 Western Cloverbelt Conference) looked well-rested and every bit the number one seed, as they stifled the youthful Red Raiders (6-19, 2-13 Marawood South Conference), holding them to just three points going into the half.
The lockdown defense continued after the break, as McDonell cruised to a running clock victory and earned one final home game for their seniors, and a chance at a Regional Championship.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Freshman guard EllaMay Cooper poured in a game-high 20 points, including 14 in the first half, while senior center Aubrey Dorn wreaked havoc with her relentless defense and rebounding, and also tallied 12 points on the night.
