Bradford 49, Eisenhower 43
BRADFORD - Lauren Blanco deposited a career-high 22 points, but it wasn't enough as Eisenhower dropped a hard-fought 49-43 decision to Bradford on Monday.
Blanco hit 10 shots from the field, including a pair of deep threes to keep the Lady Knights close, but the balanced attack of the Owls prevented Eisenhower from earning its second victory of the season. Three different Bradford players scored 12 points and a fourth netted 11 markers.
Freshman Kari Santo was next on the score sheet for Eisenhower, finishing with eight points. Lauren Sherry and Alyssa Peterson each had four points. Blanco also led the team in rebounding with seven boards and Sherry chipped in six.
