Posted by Monty Siekerman on Wednesday, February 15, 2017

By Cort Reynolds

ADA - The perimeter-sniping Arcadia girls basketball club rode two big runs to defeat host Ada 68-34 Tuesday night in a non-conference makeup battle.

The purple and gold fell to 7-14 after their fifth loss in a row, while the Lady Redskins improved to 14-7 with the victory.

Ada starting senior guards Alyssa Vore and Haley Wyss played their final home contests as Bulldogs. Wyss scored a game-high 18 points despite a sore right knee that limited her playing time.

Arcadia shot well from the perimeter to spearhead runs of 16-3 and 17-0 in each half and win convincingly.
