Senior Josie Aull was able to get going and grab 16 points in the second half—leading the Lady Raiders on the night with 19—but it was too little too late as Owensboro Catholic went on to wrap up a 62-30 win in the 3rd Region All A Classic.
Junior Hailee Johnson and sophomore Karmin Riley led the Lady Aces on the night, finishing with 15 and 11 points respectively. Owensboro Catholic sits 7-0 to start the season with the win, as they’ll look to continue their winning ways in a district matchup with Daviess County at 6 p.m. on Friday.
