Saint John Vianney 58 Bishop Ahr 43
Kimi Evans overcame early foul trouble and scored 14 of her 16 points in the second half to get the Lancers into the Non-Public “A” South semifinals. SJV had a 26-17 halftime lead and a ten point advantage at the end of three. Bishop Ahr cut it as close as four, but Saint John Vianney pulled away thanks to Evans play in the paint. Sarah Karpell added 13 for the Lady Lancers who will face RBC this Saturday in round three of a great rivalry. The Caseys scored a regular season win over SJV, but the Lancers got revenge by knocking RBC out of the Shore Conference Tournament in the semifinals. Watch SJV’s win in round two:
We’re so luck to have two great sponsors for our Saint John Vianney coverage. Thanks to Bayshore Community Bank and Paver Restoration for letting us capture so many great moments from the Lancers in all varsity sports.
