The Hillcrest girls’ basketball team recorded a 58-21 win over Ortonville on Monday night.  Ruby Peterson and Madi Foss led the Comets with 13 points each and Alivia Holmquist contributed 10 points.

“The girls got off to a quick start and never looked back,” said Hillcrest Head Coach Hannah Clark.  “We were very balanced in our scoring and we controlled the boards the entire game. Madi and Ruby both had nice all around games for us.  Regan Wiertzema and Ella Knutson continue to be a force on the boards, grabbing 13 and 10, respectively.”

Knutson added 7 points and 3 steals, Wiertzema scored 7 points, Peterson had 6 assists and 3 steals and Foss finished with 7 boards, 3 assists and 3 steals.  Madi Ballweg scored 6 points, snared 5 rebounds and came up with 3 steals.
