Antioch 62, Round Lake 51: With Amy Reiser out of town on a college visit, the Sequoits were wondering where the extra offense would come from in the Northern Lake County game.

She also picked up 5 steals and dished out 7 assists. Gallimore finished with 18 points, including a pair of 3-pointers, as Antioch (23-3, 10-1) won its 14th game in a row.

Mallory Carver's 14 points paced Wauconda (11-12, 3-8).

Libertyville 76, Waukegan 30: Riley Weis scored 14 points, hitting four 3-pointers, and the visiting Wildcats rolled to the North Suburban win.

"We got contributions from everyone today, and we shot well," Wildcats coach Greg Pedersen said.
