North reaches 1,000 points in last game at Buffalo Grove

Senior Bailey North sure went out in style playing her final home at Buffalo Grove on Tuesday night.

The 6-foot center became one of 11 other Bison to score 1,000 points in a career during a 64-37 victory over Hoffman Estates.

North, who will play at Wisconsin Parkside next season, finished with a game-high 16 points in the Mid-Suburban League crossover.

“It was a great accomplishment,” said Bison first-year coach Steve Kolodziej. “This is very indicative of what type of player Bailey is and how she has committed herself to the game of basketball over the last four years.

“We are extremely proud of her and wish her nothing but success the rest of this year and next year at Wisconsin-Parkside.”

North joins a group with Michele Ratay (2,483), Cherise Compobasso (1,926), Ashley Sandstead (1,871), Rachel Bucheck (1,684), Ellen Ayoub (1,300), Maggie Mocchi (1,184), Nicole McBean (1,133), Piper Mead (1,081), Christy Compobasso (1,065) and Kate Harker (1,008).
