WARE, Mass. -- Allie Gibeau scored 30 points Wednesday to lead the McCann Tech girls basketball team to a 58-50 win over Ware.

 

The Hornets (3-6) held Ware to four points in the second quarter to take a 29-16 lead into half-time.

 

"The whole team played great defense which led to a solid offense," McCann coach Kathy Budaj said. "They were working hard on the boards trying to limit Ware's putbacks."

 

Alanza Quinones scored 19 for McCann, which snapped a two-game losing streak.

 

"Tonight's win is a much needed win for the girls," Budaj said. "We have been working hard and coming up on the wrong side of the column."

 

McCann Tech hosts Pope Francis on Friday.
