PABLO — The first contests of the Western B girls divisional basketball tournament were less competition and more of a warmup for both St. Ignatius and Florence.
St. Ignatius 67, Darby 11
The St. Ignatius Bulldogs had their way with Darby early, holding the Tigers scoreless for nearly the full first half on the way to a 67-11 victory.
Kieran Incashola got things started for the Bulldogs and finished with 10 points.
Bulldogs senior Cora Matt led the way for her squad with 19 points, which was enough for her to eclipse the 1,000 career points mark in what was a dominating win.
