Second quarter the OPH girls were still up and doing really well. The third quarter ended at 22 for OPH and 14 for Red Hill.

The 4th quarter was a tough one, by this time you are tired out from playing so much. These girls did not give up and kept pushing! The girls started off good in the 4th quarter.
