RUSSELL, Pa. – A 13-0 second-quarter run effectively put the game out of reach as Erie picked up a 64-37 win at Eisenhower.
Rewatch the game:
After falling behind by 11, 24-13, at the end of the first quarter, Eisenhower had cut the deficit to six, 24-18, early in the second. Erie responded by scoring 13 straight to push the lead to 37-18.
The Knights matched the high-paced Royals through most of the first quarter but went cold from the field in the second half with just three field goals.
Clara Steinberg scored 10 of her team-high 15 points from the free throw line. Lainey Font and Laney Belcher each had eight points.
Draya and Aubrey Neavins took turns leading the Royals’ offense. Draya scored 13 of her 20 points in the first quarter, while Aubrey scored 11 of her 20 points in the second quarter.
