A big third quarter helped propel us. Turnovers and end-game smarts almost cost us, but we fought through.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelseyville scored nearly as many points in the third quarter (21) as it did in the first half when the two teams battled to a 22-22 tie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Knights took a 43-38 lead into the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AJ Wurm capped a big week with a season-best 28 points. She scored 23 and 22 in her two previous games this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAJ was awesome,\u201d Conrad said. \u201cShe led the way with 28 points, and many were tough buckets that we needed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Added Conrad, \u201cOur other two seniors really worked hard and led by example. Mati (Mateer) and Liz (Erlandson) just helped keep us focus and did all of the little things.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aubree Sperber added 14 points, seven rebounds and two steals, Grace Hobbs had eight points, six rebounds and five steals while Mateer contributed six points, nine rebounds and four assist.

The girls were intimidated entering the game after watching them put up 99 points last night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lower Lake (1-2) trailed 35-10 at halftime but played better in the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe way that they answered back in the second half, I\u2019m excited about this team\u2019s potential,\u201d Tubbs said of the Trojans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brooke Watson was Lower Lake\u2019s top scorer with 10 points, including a 3-pointer, while Irianna Milano and Lily Milano each had seven points.

Emma Jones also had eight points and Chloe Pulido added six more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mustangs (5-1) led 14-2 after one quarter and 27-4 at halftime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Middletown plays for the consolation championship on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Upper Lake 43, Willits 30<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Kelseyville, Upper Lake pulled down two of the sophomores playing at the varsity level \u2013 Kaylin Smith and Rylee Zimmerschied \u2013 to help out against Willits in a first-round game at the Kelseyville JV Tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a good call as Smith led the way with 18 points followed by Zimmerschied with 15.
