Rewatch the game

The Lady Bulldogs didn’t even arrive in Sharpsville until a little after 7 p.m. because an accident on Interstate 80 forced its bus to reroute through Franklin. That caused the JV game to be canceled after the three-hour ride.

                                      

But the long trip didn’t seem to bother Redbank Valley, as it led 24-6 at the end of the opening quarter and 42-18 at halftime before putting the PIAA Mercy Rule into action less than three minutes into the second half.

Mylee Harmon scored a game-high 25 points for the Lady Bulldogs despite sitting out most of the second quarter with three fouls, while Addy Bond added 20 points and Kira Bonanno 12, including eight in the second quarter when Harmon was on the bench.

Harmon, who got the Daddy’s Dish of the Game, and Bonanno, the Allegheny Grille of Foxburg Player of the Game, talked about the victory on the Cole Orthodontic Associates Postgame Interview.

Lily Palko led Sharpsville with 19 points, including scoring 17 of the Blue Devils’ 18 first-half tallies. She hit four first-half 3-pointers.
