PLATTSBURGH 34
PLATTSBURGH — Maddison Gagnier poured in 24 points to lead the Spartans to their CVAC win over the Hornets.
Ava Weiss scored 10 points and Essynce Gorham nine for PHS.
“Tonight PHS celebrated its seven seniors — Olivia LaMountain, Emma Tuller, Reese Boire, Essynce Gorham, Delaney Faucher, Ava Weiss and Aubree Mulligan,” PHS coach Kelly Weiss said.
“The girls played hard and battled a tough Saranac squad. We were unable to finish at the rim and had multiple players in foul trouble early in the game. In addition, we shot poorly from the free-throw line, which cost us the game in the end.
“We will need to learn from our mistakes and continue to improve as we prepare for post-season play.”
