Wellsville — Bonner Springs raced to a 9-0 lead and never looked back, downing the Baldwin girls, 51-25, in the second-round the Wellsville Top Gun Tournament.
With the win the Braves (11-0) move on to play Spring Hill in the tournament’s championship game at 7 p.m. Saturday.
Bonner Springs established its defense early, forcing numerous turnovers and forced the Bulldogs out of any offensive flow. Baldwin had just one field goal in the first quarter, a 3-pointer by sophomore Katie Jones.
“Defensively, we did a lot of good things,” Bonner Springs coach Clay Oakes said. “Offensively, we took some hurried shots and forced the ball at times. We’ve got some things to work on.”
The Braves did execute the offense on several occasions, getting the ball inside for scores against the smaller Bulldogs. But most of the Braves scoring came from junior wing Anna Deegan, who finished with game-high 20 points and two 3-point baskets, and guard Yessenia Hernandez, who added 10 points.

The postal service is cutting back hours at some rural post offices. How often do you go to the post office?
“For my own personal use, I only go a couple times a year to mail gifts, usually around Christmas and family birthdays. At that time I usually buy a couple books of stamps that last for most of the year! For professional use, I go a couple times a month to check our PO Box.”
