The Liverpool girls 3-0 victory featured a deep, well-balanced effort as Ashley Hardy, with games of 199, 195 and 183, led the way, finishing with a 577 series.
Makenzie Gill’s season-best 245 game led to a 561 series, whiel Makenzi Ormsby’s 216 game was part of a 556 set. Dominique Cimini added a 512 series (193 high game) as Brandi Harmon contributed a 457 set.
Liverpool followed up with a match against Auburn on Thursday afternoon at Falcon Lanes, and the Warriors managed to win on both sides over the Maroons equal 2-1 margins.

That same Thursday, Cicero-North Syracuse met Christian Brothers Academy, where it prevailed 3-0 on the girls side as Jessaia McGriff had a 544 series and Brianna Mabee shot a 193 game on her way to a 506 set.
