Juliana Tremblay scored a game-high 14 points, including three three-pointers, for the visitors.
“These girls continue to impress with the balance on offense,” Chazy coach Josh Howell said. “It’s a lot of fun to watch because we get good contributions every night one through 10.
“We found a spark on defense in the third quarter and start of the fourth, but didn’t have the same energy tonight. We had three games this week with the road trips being long in our league and I think the girls were a little tired. But the girls pushed through and I was proud of them for digging deep and finding a way to put together enough good possessions on offense and enough stops on defense.”
