3A girls: Shadle pulls it out
the Shadle Park Highlanders, 3A state runners-up last year, survived their first-round game Wednesday with a 47-46 win over the Capital Cougars.
The Highlanders played without leading scorer Aleisha Hathaway, a sophomore who averages 14 points per game.
Senior guard Jenna Humphrey was one of a handful of Highlanders who stepped up in place of Hathaway. Humphrey scored a game-high 17 points, including two key baskets late in the fourth quarter when Shadle took its first lead.
