CARDINAL O’HARA 59, LEBANON 51
The defending PIAA Class 6A champions had their hands full with a Cedars team that figures to be a top contender for the Lancaster-Lebanon league and District 3 crowns this season. Lebanon looked inside to senior Lily Harrison, the 6-foot-3 center owning a clear size advantage that earned plenty of attention from the Lions defense. Harrison, who finished 18 points, was Lebanon’s main offensive outlet in the first half with 13 markers before the break.
After giving up the game’s opening basket, O’Hara rolled off an 11-0 run and built a 21-13 lead after a quarter.
Senior Molly Rullo got off to a strong start with six first quarter points for the Lions. The Drexel recruit had an off day offensively, but she did post 11 points and was impressive as a rebounder, recording a double-double with 14 boards. Carly Wakefield was a spark in the second quarter, connecting for four points and assisting two baskets as the Lions took a 31-21 lead to halftime.
