Basketball Recap: Ridgeline Makes It Ten in a Row at Home

You can't lose the game if you win every quarter, and that was precisely Ridgeline's strategy against Ferris on Friday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Ridgeline Falcons blew the Ferris Saxons out of the water with a 68-32 final score. The Falcons have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won three matches by 32 points or more this season.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Ridgeline to victory, but perhaps none more so than Emma Myers, who went 11 of 20 en route to 30 points along with seven rebounds and six assists. Myers has been hot, having also posted two or more steals the last six times she's played. Madilyn Crowley was another key player, going 8 for 14 on her way to 19 points in addition to eight boards and four steals.

Myers wasn't the only one working in the assists department: Ridgeline was working as a unit and finished the game with 13 assists. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Ferris only posted seven assists.

Ferris lost despite a true team effort on offense, the best among them being Brooke Chisholm, who posted nine points and five boards. Those nine points gave Chisholm a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of JUJU Lewis, who put up seven points.
