ILWACO — The Ilwaco Lady Fishermen (4-0) crushed the visiting Northwest Christian Wolverines (0-2) 56-28 on Tuesday, May 11 in Ilwaco.

Ilwaco was led by senior guard Erika Glenn, who scored a game-high 25 points.

Both teams got off to a sluggish start offensively until Ilwaco sophomore Ione Sheldon hit a 3-pointer to open the scoring (3-0) at the 5:15 mark.

The Lady Fishermen used a full-court press effectively as senior guard Erika Glenn began to heat up from the perimeter.

Glenn scored the final seven points the first period, swelling the Ilwaco lead to 17-3.

The second period started the way the first one ended, with another Glenn breakaway steal and layup before the Lady Fishermen took a comfortable 34-14 lead into the half.

Glenn continued her scoring barrage into the third period, where Ilwaco took a 49-21 advantage before reserves began to enter the game with the outcome no longer in doubt.
