February 12, 2019

Iroquois’ Angelina Meola won’t be eligible to play in the postseason, but she has certainly put the rest of District 10 on notice this season. D-10’s leading scorer erupted for 54 points on Monday, part of a 72-36 win over Eisenhower. “It wasn’t our best defensive effort on her,” said Eisenhower coach Mike Logue. Meola has been abusing defenses all season, and she led Iroquois to its 14th straight win. After transferring from McDowell, along with her sisters Desiree and Jasmine, the trio were ruled ineligible for postseason competition by D-10. After a 21-8 ...
