In arguably the biggest matchup of the night, Dublin Coffman and Marion Harding battled for an entertaining first half before the Rocks pulled away after halftime.

The visiting Prexies came out on fire as senior guards Ariyah Douglas and Nicole Flock helped Harding build an early first quarter lead. Dublin Coffman struck right back as sophomore Jenna Kopyar buried a buzzer beating three to end the first quarter to give the Rocks a 14-13 advantage.

After that point, it was all Coffman as the Rocks extended its lead to six at half before cruising in the second half. Kopyar, Tessa Grady and Tara Flynn combined for 37 points to pace the Rocks while Flock and Douglas combined for 24 for Harding.

#3 reynoldsburg 71, #27 canal winchester 42

The early full court press from the Lady Raiders threw Canal Winchester off their game and junior Imarianah Russell led the way as Reynoldsburg cruised to a 71-42 win. 

Decked out in the home white jerseys, Reynoldsburg jumped out to an 11-2 lead and it was never that close again. The defense of the Lady Raiders was top-notch, forcing numerous turnovers before the ball crossed half-court. 

Russell was tremendous on both ends of the floor, Mya Perry was her consistent self and the talented bunch seemed sharp all evening. The Reynoldsburg trio was complete as Alexia Mobley had another double double showing with 18 points and 10 rebounds.

#7 pickerington central 57, #4 westerville north 37

While Pickerington Central was the lower seeded team heading into this contest, we would not exactly call it an upset as the Tigers dominated from start to finish in a big 57-37 win over Westerville North.

Playing suffocating defense all night long, the Tigers did not allow Westerville North to covert on their first field goal of the contest until there were less than two minutes to go in the first half.

Pickerington Central received excellent contributions from their entire rotation highlighted by a game-high 21 points from Madison Greene, while Emoni Finch led Westerville North with 19 in the loss.
