Right back to the action after a dominant win the previous night, the Lady Macks (24-2, 13-1 Western Cloverbelt Conference) gave up the first two points of the game to the Tigers (14-12, 10-6 Marawood South Conference), then scored 11 straight and never looked back, notching 57 points by halftime.
McDonell continued their defensive dominance in the second half, as every player on the roster saw the floor, five ended the night in double figures, and the Lady Macks claimed their first ever Division 4 Regional Championship in a fitting home court finale.
WOGO "RadioActive" Award Watch:
Senior guard Emily Cooper and freshman guard EllaMay Cooper paced the scoring with 17 apiece, while freshman forward Anne Siegenthaler was close behind with 14.
