Carondelet girls are too much for Oak Ridge and advance to NorCal open division title game.
CONCORD — Carondelet High was in good shape at halftime with a 12-point lead Saturday night with sharp-shooting guard Naya Epps unable to find the range.
Epps led Carondelet with 17 points, all of them in the second half, with Stanford-bound point guard Talana Lepolo adding 16 and 6-foot-5 center Ashley Lewis scoring 14. Although Carondelet wasn’t able to find the range outside in the first half, Lepolo controlled things against the Trojans’ 2-3 zone by consistently finding open teammates in the paint. The Cougars were up 19-8 after the first quarter and led 30-18 at halftime.
With that kind of outside firepower, to go with Lepolo’s all-around floor game and the inside presence of Lewis, it was too much for Oak Ridge to handle. “I started off the game pretty cold, but my teammates told me to keep shooting,” Epps said. “We knew they were going to play a high 2-3 , and in the first half, we were able to beat them with layups with Talana splitting their defenders.”
