[December 16, 2016]    The Lady Hilltoppers traveled to Decatur LSA Thursday night and cruised to a 59-31 victory behind a team leading 16 points from freshman Isabella Wade.

 

Wade scored just two points in the first half, but caught fire in the second half and scored 14 points to hit her career high, so far, in high school varsity basketball action.

Mount Pulaski led all the way in this one with a halftime score of 33-17 that left little doubt if the Lady Hilltoppers could keep it together, they would come away with the victory. They did indeed as the entire team stepped up and played solid ball at both ends of the court and the result was a lot of names in the scoring column as Coach Eric Leever’s team won 59-31.

The Lady Hilltoppers are off until Monday night, when they travel to take on Argenta-Oreana. The JV game will start at 6 p.m. and the Varsity will follow at 7:30 p.m.
