Union girls win their first
Union (32) Vs. Western Beaver (21)
Dec 17, 2013
The Union High girls basketball team broke into the win column last night.

The Lady Scots utilized a strong defensive effort to capture a 32-21 WPIAL Section 1-A road win over Western Beaver.

“It’s nice for the kids to get a win,” said first-year Union coach Larry Ondako. “We’re getting better, that’s the biggest thing. I think we’ve improved every game.”

It’s the second game in a row the Lady Scots (1-1 section, 1-4 overall) have held the opposition to under 27 points. Union dropped a 26-21 verdict to Sewickley Academy last week.

“We’ve done a nice job defensively from the get-go this season,” Ondako said. “We played good defense against Western Beaver, too.”

Tyanna Harris rifled in a game-high 17 points, 10 coming in the first half for the Lady Scots. Skylar Thompson chipped in with 10 markers.

“We’ve improved the most offensively and confidence-wise,” Ondako said of his team since the opener. “They’re learning what to expect and I thought everyone played well.”

Lauren Ranone netted eight points for the Lady Golden Beavers (0-2, 0-6).

Union built a 17-11 halftime advantage and pushed it to 24-14 going to the fourth quarter.
