WEST BRANCH BEATS DOWN THE DUKES

ALLIANCE OH- West Branch  used a 14-0 third quarter to turn a one point halftime lead double digits  on its way to a 45-26 victory over the Marlington Dukes.  The win ups the Warriors record to 7-0 in the EBC and 12-2 overall.

The Warriors led the Dukes 15-14 at the break, but solid defense and good permitter shooting blew open a close game for West Branch.  In all, the Warriors would hit a season high seven three pointers tonight.  Chloe Dennison led the way with three triples (12 points overall) while Carter Shepherd hit two (six points overall).  Mati Hawk and Audrey Eaton each knocked down one apiece from behind the arc.  Livie Showalter was strong down low, adding 10 points for West Branch.

The Warriors will head home for another EBC contest with Alliance next Wednesday, January 17th.  Tip off is scheduled following the JV game.
