ST. ANSGAR — St. Ansgar made it look easy for its second straight comfortable win over a Top of Iowa East opponent in posting a 59-21 victory over Nashua-Plainfield on Tuesday, Jan. 24.
A double-double by seniors Madison Hillman and Addison Tabbert helped pave the way for the Saints improving to 10-5 overall, 8-4 in the TIC East. Hillman went for 19 points and 11 rebounds while Tabbert posted 11 and 10, respectively.
Four different players finished with three or more assists, led by Aspen Falk’s four. Hillman also led the team in steals and blocked shots with five each.
“Our defense (was key),” coach Scott Cakerice said. “I’m guessing of their 21 points 15 of them were three-pointers. We did a nice job with discipline. Our press was nice, pleased with the girls’ efforts, came out intense and got after it, and when we do that, we are a pretty good ball team.”
