Class A girls complete sweep

FARGO - Bismarck Century graduate Tricia Sorensen scored 12 points on 4-of-6 shooting to lead the Class A All-Stars in an 83-74 win over the Class B All-Stars in the second game of the Lions All-Stars Girls Basketball series Wednesday.

Devils Lake's Alicia Greening and Fargo South's Caitlyn Haring chipped in 10 points apiece for the Class A All-Stars, which shot 60 percent from the field and 50 percent from the free throw line.

"Our defense just wasn't there," Class B All-Stars coach Jason Schwarz said. "They shot 60 percent and you can't use the excuse that the other team was hot. Yeah, they shot well, but we didn't get a hand out and defend them well enough."

Leading the Class B All-Stars was Kenmare's Kendra Miller (17 points on 7 of 9 shooting) and Bottineau's Shaunna Knife (17 points on 5 of 14 shooting). The Class A All-Stars held a 44-28 rebounding edge, but committed 25 turnovers to Class B's 16.
