The Hornet girls beat Kennedy Catholic decisively last night, Jan. 15, 59-42.

Danielle Saltarelli once again led the scoring with 13 and anchored the post with her rebounding and defense.

Julia Myers hit 12, Jessica Snoen 10 and Katie Holland nine.

Nadine Huff added seven and Kimmy Aubert four.

The girls started slowly with Kennedy up 16-14 at the end of the first frame.

By the second the Saltarelli began to take control of the paint with the trio of Myers, Snoen and Holland scoring and distributing the ball.

The strength of this Hornet team is the ability to take what the defense and their shooting hands give them. When they are hot from the three-point line they shoot, when it goes cold they drive the paint.

Next up for the girls is Prairie at 4:15 p.m. today at Franklin Pierce.

Prairie beat Bonney Lake 66-33 last night.
