BOLIVAR – Monday night was a night that belonged to the Lady Wolverines of Bolivar-Richburg, as they broke free from visiting Oswayo Valley in the second half after a closely contested first half of play, holding the Lady Green Wave to a single point on the floor, as they rolled their way toward a 48-14 win.

The Lady Wolverines (2-1) found their way on top early on in the evening, with each team exchanging a basket before the hosts made a big 9-0 run that lasted over five minutes. Oswayo Valley found a way to close out the quarter strong however, recording the last five points to trail by three entering the second.

Both teams fought tooth and nail once more in the second quarter, but the Lady Wolverines were able to get the last say before heading to the locker room, as McKinlee Harris put away the lay-in before time expired to give Bolivar-Richburg a 17-13 lead at the break.

In the second half, the hosts added to their lead for good, sealing the deal on their victory with a 31-1 outscoring of Oswayo Valley, including a third quarter shutout in the form of a 19-0 run.

“I keep telling the girls to keep building and building, and we did,” Bolivar-Richburg coach Justin Thomas said. “Even though we had a first half that was a little lackluster, and we had our looks, we built an amazing third quarter coming out. We just jumped right out, used the press to our advantage, and it worked to carry the momentum our way.”

Cole led all scorers with a game-high 15 points to pair with her 10 rebounds, completing her double-double. Kelsey Pacer added 13 points, and was one steal away from her own double-double, finishing with nine. Harris had eight points, and five steals.

Bolivar-Richburg hits their home floor again on Wednesday, as they welcome in Genesee Valley for a 6 p.m. contest.

“We had some balanced scoring across the board tonight, including some off-the-bench points from Emma Cole in her first tenure of varsity. The balance was definitely our key,” said Fillmore coach Tom Parks. “Kate Howe is a phenomenal player, and I saw her go off for 30 against Portville. She had 29 against tonight. We didn't have a ton of lapses, she can shoot the ball anywhere on the floor, even with all the pressure. She had a sound game, and the team behind her helped keep the game really interesting for the most of it.”
