GSL girls: Demi Howlett’s 15 points catapults Gonzaga Prep past Ferris 64-34

Demi Howlett scored a career-high 15 points, hitting 8 of 12 at the line, and the Bullpups took care of the visiting Saxons (3-3, 0-2).

Grace Hammon added 10 points for the Pups, while the G-Prep defense didn’t allow a Ferris scorer to reach double digits.

“The last two games she’s done a lot better job of it, within the context of our offense, how to find her shot and she’s been doing a lot better job,” said G-Prep coach Mike Arte.

With the league wide open, Arte thinks his squad shouldn’t be overlooked.

“We’ve got a lot of growing and learning to do,” he said. “This group, I really love coaching them. They pick up things quickly and we have a lot of interchangeable parts. I think we’re going to be okay and see if we can challenge some of those top teams.”

Trista Dammel and Payton Royston had six points apiece for the Saxons.
