AHS girls enter postseason 19-4
The ninth-ranked Arlington girls basketball team concluded its regular season schedule Friday by road rout.
Coach Tashia Wolf's Eagles beat Louisville 70-24, improving to 19-4 before the start of postseason play. The Eagles host Logan View/Scribner-Snyder today in their first game of the Class C1-6 Subdistrict Tournament. The matchup begins at 7 p.m.
First, though, Macy Wolf scored 19 points to lead AHS past the 4-18 Lions. The sophomore made three 3-pointers, while Emme Timm hit one and finished with 13 points. Hailey O'Daniel and Austyn Flesner scored nine apiece, too.
Timm also tied the AHS school record for steals in a season with her 87th against the Lions. Lori Gottsch initially set the record during the 1988-89 campaign.
