Riverside defeats Neshannock
Riverside (56) Vs. Neshannock (43)
The third quarter was a momentum buster for the Neshannock High girls basketball team.

Last night at Riverside, the Lady Lancers went to the half tied with the Lady Panthers but ended up suffering a 56-43 WPIAL Section 2-AA loss.

Neshannock (5-6 section, 9-11 overall) matched Riverside with 23 points at the half before the Lady Panthers (9-1, 15-4) outscored the Lady Warriors 19-8 in the third quarter.

“It was actually one of the best games we’ve played this year,” Neshannock coach Greg Huston said. “We were tied at halftime and then (Brooke) Mulneix pretty much killed us.”

Mulneix scored 15 of her game-high 26 points in the third quarter. She converted 11 of 19 from the foul line.

Riverside was 22 of 36 from the free-throw line, while Neshannock netted 7 of 15 attempts.

Ericka Warvell scored a team-high 21 points for the Lady Lancers and Chelsea Kauffman followed with 10.

“Warvell and Kauffman both had really nice games,” Huston said. “They gave us a chance to win it there, but we couldn’t pull it out.”
