Despite an opening-round loss to No. 10 Argyle that knocked them out of title contention at the triple-A girls provincial high school basketball championship, the College Heights Cougars put that behind them and have gotten into a winning habit.
They reeled off their second-straight victory Friday in Langley, hammering Robert Bateman 93-51. Rachel Loukes led the Cougars’ cause with 37 points, backed by a 25-point game from Lorenn Cacares.
The win puts College Heights into the ninth-10th-place game today at 12:45 p.m. against Clayton Heights.
Ranked No. 7 going in, the Cougars lost Wednesday’s opener 72-55 to Argyle, then beat Mark Isfeld 65-49 on Thursday.
