Aggressive, ballhawking man-to-man defense and balanced scoring on offense were the hallmarks of Trout Lake/Glenwood's 58-26 non-league girls basketball victory over Horizon Christian Monday in Odell, Ore.
The win raised the Eagle Mustangs' record in December games to 5-0.
TLG took charge of the contest in the second quarter, outscoring the host Hawks, 22-8, to build a 29-11 halftime advantage.
Two minutes into the period, Horizon closed within 10-7 on a pair of free throws by Liz Taylor. But Stephanie Anderson countered for TLG moments later, converting both ends of a 1-and-1 and starting a 14-point run by the Eagle Mustangs that featured eight points by Katie Yarnell.
Yarnell finished with a game-high 14 points, Dave'y Lumley scored 13 and Megan Anderson had 10 on a night TLG made 15-of-25 free throws (4 for 5 by Lumley, 3 for 4 by Kindra Van Laar).
At the start of the third quarter, Heather Huffsmith sank two from the line to kick off a 9-2 TLG run that included five points by Lumley (including a 3-point play) and pushed the Eagle Mustangs' lead past 20 points.
