River Valley knew repeating as District VI champions wouldn’t be easy, especially going up against a gritty Westmont Hilltop team, but they never expected the type of game that took place at Mt. Aloysius on Friday.
Jake Slebodnick has the recap from the 50-43 Panther win.
Coach Ricc Brown said his team used the elongated halftime break to regroup mentally.
Ava Persichetti said this win was special since it was the second — and final — district championship for seniors Abby Pynos and Hannah Artley.
Artley said hosting a state playoff game is a great way to headline her senior campaign.
River Valley now awaits their opponent for the state playoffs, which begin next Friday.
