Naperville North hit the 18th-ranked Loyola Ramblers with everything it had Monday night.
The Huskies upset the Ramblers 52-46 in the Waubonsie Valley/West Aurora tournament, thanks in part to an unselfish offense that had six players score in the fourth quarter.
“I thought the one big key to the game was that we got big contributions off the bench,” Naperville North coach Tom Vargos said. “Our depth really helped. When we got in foul trouble in the first half we were able to bring in fresh players and not miss a beat.”
Junior guard Rachel Karos led Naperville North with 14 points.
The Huskies (2-0) led 39-33 at the end of the third quarter and extended the lead to 44-36 on a three-pointer by Sarah Lenert with just over 5 minutes remaining. Loyola (2-2) cut it to 44-39 on a putback by Karen Xaverius (11 points), but Naperville North responded with a 7-0 run, capped by a three-point play by Rachel Sauerman that gave the Huskies a 51-39 advantage with 2 minutes to play.
In the second game at Waubonsie Valley, top-ranked Fenwick defeated the host Warriors 65-35. Katie O’Grady led Fenwick with 19 points and six steals, while Sarah Kwasinski added 14 points and eight rebounds. Waubonsie fell to 0-3.
At West Aurora, Fremd (2-1) topped Providence 59-51 behind Maggie Fontana’s 26 points. Fremd trailed by five at the half but outscored Providence 20-4 in the third quarter to take control. Colleen Gannon led Providence (0-2) with 16 points.
Jackie Shook’s 21 points, 22 rebounds and eight blocks powered No. 8 West Aurora (2-0) past Joliet 55-45.
