2/8/10 Scores

A couple of rivalry games went different directions last night.  Mt. Vernon cruised past Aurora 56-29.  The Lady Mountaineers jumped out to a 26-9 halftime lead and added to that as they went along to get the Big 8 victory.  While Kickapoo took control of the Ozark Conference race with a 55-50 overtime win over Glendale.  Casey Carroll had 20 to lead the Lady Chiefs.

The Mid-Lakes girls race stayed wild as Lauren McCurry’s 28 points helped Pleasant Hope get past Fair Grove 49-48.  Webb City continued their roll with a 60-53 win over Ozark behind Kaitlin Jaeger’s 24 points.  And the big performance of the night goes to Carl Junction’s Lauren McRae who scored 34 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in the Lady Bulldogs 66-34 win over Lamar.
