Went 7-1 on the day yesterday, with the Preston Panthers picking up a BIG win at home over the KCI Raiders, in a game where I had tabbed the Raiders by 6.
At least I was correct in stating that the Panthers "are better than their 2-4 record".
KCI couldn't contain Preston star Ashley White, who went off for 25 points in a 44-37 victory. Hayley McGoldrick added 8 for the Panthers, while Christiana Koebel (12) and Maddie LaFleur (9) led the way for the Raiders.
Let's look at the other scores on Thursday:
Cameron Heights 63, Forest Heights 47
My Pick: CHCI by 19
Hunter Johns and Liz McLellan had matching 21-point efforts to lead CHCI to victory on Thursday. Blair McNaughton had a game-high 26 for the Trojans.
WODSS 54, Eastwood 22
My Pick: WODSS by 36
Maddy Horst (12) and Alisha Glendinning (12) improved the Crusaders to 7-0 for the first time in a long time. Caitlyne Rysdale and Mel Samuel had 6 each for the Rebels.
WCI 57, Bluevale 29
My Pick: WCI by 15

Huron Heights 36, Glenview Park 16

Jacob Hespeler 45, Galt 23
My Pick: JHSS by 29
Jacob Hespeler's Brook (18) and Candice (11) Wright led the way on Thursday, while Allie Buchanan had 7 and Carissa Grove 4 for GCI.

Southwood 37, Elmira 23
