?‍☠️ Final at NKU via @859Radio. 

Maybe the best game of the day.

Impressive young Highlands team, and Marissa Green is, well, terrific. Congratulations Bluebirds and Coach Richey on a tremendous season! 

The Bluebirds close out at 23-9 and ranked #40 in today's Massey Ratings. 

The #7 Lady Raiders (23-8) will meet #9 Holy Cross in Friday's 8:00 semifinal.

Also a very well officiated game. Really enjoyable game, top to bottom.

Both teams came out and played solid D. Highlands held Abby to single digits and the Raiders held Marissa under her average. Marissa and Sarah battled and the refs let them play. Unforced turnovers cut into the Raiders lead late in the game (they were up 11 at one point) but the Raiders were able to knock down free throws to seal the win. Quinn led all scorers with 18. Highlands is a young team, they will continue to make waves in the 9th region for the next several years.
