Holiday hot streak!

Gila Ridge girls basketball secures 3rd consecutive win.

After the Gila Ridge girls basketball team recently lost it's section opener, the Hawks have put together 2 straight wins; including a road win over Kofa earlier this week.

Now, that they are on the verge of going into the holiday break with even more momentum; they would play host to the Washington Rams on Friday night.

In the first half, it would be a tight start for Ridge.

Even though the Hawks would build a 9-point lead in the 1st quarter, the Rams would get back into it in the 2nd, and slim Ridge's lead to a mere 2 points at the half.

The Hawks would gradually pull away in the 3rd and 4th quarters to come away with the 47-36 victory.

Senior Maddie Fain led all Hawks scorers with 16 points and 3 rebounds, while Molly Sims came away with 12 points and 5 boards.

The Hawks will resume their season after Christmas, as they're set to play in the Lady Titan Winter Hoops Classic on December 27th.
