GSL roundup: CV girls fend off Gonzaga Prep

Central Valley girls basketball coach Freddie Rehkow saw some growth in his young team Tuesday as it had to fend off Gonzaga Prep 58-47 in a Greater Spokane League game at Gonzaga Prep.

After Rehkow’s Bears built a 14-point lead in the second half, Gonzaga Prep took advantage of some turnovers to pull within two.

CV (3-0 overall, 2-0 league) finished the game on a 9-0 run.

“We played young,” said Rehkow, who starts three sophomores and two freshmen. “They took care of it at the end. We’re about where I thought we’d be right now. There’s a lot of learning to do. I thought Prep played well.”

The Hull twins led CV. Lexie led with 22 points and Lacie had 12. Hailey Christopher chipped in 14.

Mia Scelfo led G-Prep (0-4, 0-2) with 15 points and Joy Akaegbu had 12.

Lewis and Clark 68, Shadle Park 10: The visiting Tigers (2-1, 2-0) swarmed the Highlanders (0-3, 0-2), limiting them to two points in each of the first three quarters. Brooklyn Howlett led LC with 15 points and freshman Jacinta Buckley added 10. Willow Risinger scored six of Shadle’s points.

Mead 54, North Central 48: Leading 42-31 at halftime, the visiting Panthers (2-1, 2-0) outscored the Indians (0-4, 0-2) 15-8 in the decisive third period. Aaliyah Pauling led Mead with 27 points. Freshman Quincy McDeid led NC with 16 and Megan Dean added 14.
