It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but O'Connor had no problem doing just that on Thursday. They blew past the Highland Hawks 66-27. The matchup was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Eagles had established a 32 point advantage.
O'Connor's victory was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Audrey Bhesania, who posted nine points in addition to six assists and five boards. Bhesania is also on a roll when it comes to field goal percentage, as she's posted one of at least 56% in the last three games she's played. Another player making a difference was Savannah Helms, who went 7-for-14 on her way to 16 points and four steals.
Bhesania wasn't the only one working in the assist department: O'Connor was working as a unit and finished the game with 13 assists. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Highland only three assists.
Highland's loss came despite strong showings from Peyton Jacobsen and Bailey Williams. Jacobsen put up 11 points and seven rebounds, while Williams scored ten points.
O'Connor has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 12 of their last 14 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 18-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 62.7 points over those games. Highland's defeat dropped their record down to 14-14.
O'Connor wasted no time getting back out on the court and has already played their next contest, a 48-40 loss against Mesa on the 1st. Highland does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
