Round Lake wins twice at Fenton

Diane Flade scored all 14 of her points in the opening quarter, and Round Lake's girls basketball team cruised to a 50-10 win over Chicago Academy, capping a 2-0 day in Fenton's MLK tournament on Saturday.

Round Lake (14-8), which has won five in a row, will play the host school at 11 a.m. Monday when the tournament resumes at Fenton.

Round Lake led Chicago Academy 31-2 after one quarter, as Flade poured in three 3-pointers. The Panthers also got 8 points from Karla Marin and 7 points apiece from Giselle Raygoza and Amari Cole.

In its first game of the day, Round Lake defeated Thornridge 44-22, jumping out to a 12-0 lead after one quarter and taking a 24-4 advantage into halftime. Flade (two 3-pointers) and Emily Etherington each scored 12 points.

Libertyville 54, Dundee Crown 40: Lydia Crow and Margaret Buchert each scored 18 points, as the visiting Wildcats picked up the nonconference win.

Lauren Huber added 8 points for Libertyville (16-6), which won its third game in a row. Crow sank five 3-pointers, and Buchert made two.

"I was worried about our energy level with the snowy day and long bus ride, but the team came out on all cylinders," Wildcats coach Greg Pedersen said. "Dundee-Crown really adjusted well and we had to earn this one with defensive stops."
