Rantoul 50, QHS 43

The Blue Devils could not hold on to a 34-30 fourth quarter lead in the first game of the QHS Girls Basketball Tournament.

Emily Hart had nine points and nine rebounds to lead Quincy, with Shelby Wires adding eight points. Quincy was down three and had several chances to either tie it or cut the lead to one, but Rantoul made six free throws in the final minute to ice it.

QHS plays Chicago John Hope today at 5 p.m. at QHS Gym.

GAME BALL: Hayley Womack, a freshman guard, saw her first extensive action of the season and hit a big 3-pointer in the fourth quarter to keep us close.

NICE GYM: QHS Gym has a refurbished floor and much nicer bleachers.

ALL DAY: Games continue tomorow. QHS plays its third game at either 9 a.m. or 3 p.m.
