The John Carroll Patriots ran their record to 12-3 with a workman-like 41-22 win at Garrison Forest Monday night. The Patriots led 26-11 at the half and used a swarming defensive effort from all 11 players to win their 10th game in a row.

Emily Soller and Yemaya Johnson led the Patriots on the offensive end with 11 points each, while Miranda Ripken added eight to bring her career total to 985 points. Ripken is expected to top the 1,000 point mark this week during one of John Carroll's three other games. The Pats are on the road today (Wednesday) at IND, where the team expects Ripken to reach the milestone, then they return home Thursday for a 5:30 p.m. non-conference game versus Fallston in which John Carroll has planned a celebration to honor the senior captain before the game.

Mustangs top Huskies, stay atop division

With the division lead at stake, Patterson Mill and C. Milton Wright waged a battle Thursday night on the hardwood at the Fountain Green Road school in a girls basketball game in the UCBAC's Susquehanna Division.

The host Mustangs had all kinds of trouble offensively in the opening quarter, but rallied to overcome an ugly beginning to win, 55-49.

Patterson Mill (5-1, 6-5) jumped all over CMW (6-0, 9-3) in the first quarter, leading 15-3. The Mustangs, though, chiseled away a bit at the lead in the second quarter, despite a temporary blackout.

With 3:13 left in the half, every light in the gym went out. And stayed out for about 10 seconds before the emergency lights started to come back on. The delay lasted about six minutes.

The Mustangs cut the lead to single digits with 1:14 to play and went to the half trailing, 29-20.

In the second half, as the Huskies shooting cooled, the Mustangs, specifically Allie Appleby, started to heat up.

Appleby's first of three second half three-pointers cut the Huskies lead to 37-33 late in the third quarter.

Her second three tied the game at 40 and 40 seconds later, a short jumper by Appleby gave the Mustangs their first lead, 42-41.

Minutes later, Appleby tossed in her third three-point shot for a 46-42 lead. A driving layup by Katie Burgee pushed CMW to its largest lead, 49-42.

The Huskies made a late run, but the Mustangs made enough free throws to clinch the victory.

Appleby scored 17 points to lead the winners and Abby Smucker had 13. Burgee came off the bench to contribute seven key points.

Patterson Mill freshman Qalea Ismail led all scorers with 18 points and Morgan Golec scored 13. The Huskies were playing without freshman point guard Sam Herman, who was on the bench in a walking boot.

In a rare Friday night girls basketball game, Aberdeen traveled to Elkton for an UCBAC Chesapeake Division game. Like the previous nine games, the Eagles put another one in the win column with a 70-38 triumph over the Golden Elks.

Brionna Jones had her usual impressive night for the Eagles (6-0, 10-0), scoring 24 points, grabbing 13 rebounds and blocking four shots. Nia Alleyne tossed in 22 points and TK Fowlkes had nine points.

Kierra Palmer dished out seven assists and Alleyne had five.

Mariners lose on road

Playing a second straight non-league game on Thursday, Joppatowne traveled to St. Frances and lost, 63-50. The Mariners were behind by eight, 32-24, at the half, but the deficit doubled to 53-37 after three quarters.

HCS loses league contest

Harford Christian lost in the last minute to Carroll Christian, 54-53, in an MACSAC game in Dublin on Thursday.

Cady Farrish had given HCS the lead with 42 seconds to go, but Carroll's Jane Undermanned hit two free throws with 26 seconds left to give the visitors the win.

Farrish led the Eagles with 10 points and six rebounds, while coach Brian Akers credited senior forward Amber Guertler with having a great game. Guertler had nine points and nine rebounds. Emily Dodson also had nine points.

HCS got some bad news in the third when they lost Chloe Akers to a shoulder separation.

Results didn't get any better for the Eagles on Friday after a lopsided conference loss to visiting Mount Airy Christian School. The visitors exploded from the opening tip for a 24-3 lead, en route to a 65-27 win.

Kelsey Williams scored eight points to lead the Eagles, while Farrish added seven points and eight rebounds. Grace Shanahan had six points and Guertler grabbed six rebounds.
