“What a game, we were tied 29-29 at half but came out extremely slow in the 2nd half,” reported Underwood Head Coach Brian Hovland. “Mills got on a roll and they took a 9 point lead midway through the half. We definitely had a gut check moment and the girls responded. We did a great job of limiting them in shots and keeping their shooters from getting easy looks. I couldn't be prouder of our girls!”
