Dallas at Crestwood (Girls)

 The Dallas Lady Mountaineers came into Mountain Top to take on the Crestwood Lady Comets. The Mountaineers came in with a 3-0 record in WVC Division 1 with a big win over Hazleton Area last Monday and came in 9-1 overall. Crestwood came in with a 1-2 record in Division 1 with losses to Pittston Area and Hazleton Area and 4-7 overall.
 Dallas would start off leading 14-12 after a back and forth 1st quarter. Crestwood would eventually tie up the game at 20, but Dallas would outscore the Comets 6-5 to take a 26-25 halftime lead. Crestwood would outscore Dallas 12-6 in the third quarter to take a 38-31 lead. Crestwood would end up pulling away to upset No 4 ranked Dallas and give them their 2nd loss of the season and first loss in Conference play. Maddie Ritsick scored 15 of her game-high 25 points in the second half. Abbie Macko added 9 points for the Lady Comets. Nikki Wren and Maddie Kelley scored 12 points each for the Lady Mountaineers. With Dallas's loss, Pittston Area gains sole possession of first place in WVC Division 1.

Thoughts on the games: Believe Dallas and Crestwood played well in the first half with Dallas leading by 1 at the break. Crestwood came out and played a great second half, outscoring Dallas 26-12.
