Game Details - Girls Basketball

In a tight Region 6 battle from the opening tip, Highland pulled away from visiting Brighton in the fourth quarter with some clutch late possessions for the 63-58 victory to improve to 2-0 in league play. Sosefina Langi had another solid outing for the Rams scoring 21 points, with Sophia Legate chipping in with 18 points on six 3-pointers. Highland coach Sala Asiata said the key for his team was, “staying composed, slowing things down offensively and communicating on defense. Brighton is tough and will continue to get better.” Sophie Nielsen scored 18 points to lead Brighton, one of three players to score in double figures for the Bengals as they buried 10 3-pointers. It wasn’t quite enough to offset 11 3-pointers from Highland.
