The Hillcrest girls’ basketball team scored a season high 78 points in their 78-47 win over Ortonville on Thursday night.

“We had good ball movement on offense that led to some good, open shots for the girls,” commented Hillcrest Head Coach Hannah Clark. “We were able to knock down 10 three’s and that was due to our guards attacking the basket and drawing the defense in. 

Mackenzie Foss played a great game for us both offensively and defensively. Once she gets going, everyone else follows and it was fun to see so many people contribute. 

Madi Foss did a great job attacking the basket tonight. She finished around the rim nicely and she had some great passes out to our shooters.”
Mackenzie Foss poured in 33 points, came up with 7 steals, dished out 5 assists and grabbed 4 rebounds to lead the lady Comets.  Molly McGuire added 14 points and 8 rebounds, Madi Foss had 10 points, 3 assists and 4 steals, Anna Rasmusson scored 8 points and pulled down 6 boards, and Madi Ballweg had 7 points and 4 rebounds.

Emily Ross led Ortonville with 12 points.

Hillcrest (4-21) has won 3 of their last 4 games and will open Section 6A play with a game at Mahnomen/Waubun on Friday night.
