Seminole pushed the score to 42-12 by the end of the third, a deficit Osceola had little chance of recovering from.
Laney Pearson was her usual excellent self, scoring 21 points along with six rebounds and three steals. That makes it four consecutive games in which she has scored at least a third of Seminole's points. The team also got some help courtesy of Devon Swartz, who scored ten points along with three blocks.
