St. Scholastica leads from start to defeat Country Day, 45-32

After winning their first three games of the season, St. Scholastica hit rough times, losing its last six games. That streak ended Monday in Metairie.

The Doves took control from the start and went on to a 45-32 victory at Country Day.

St. Scholastica led 13-8 after one quarter and 20-15 at the half. The Doves extended their lead to 33-21 after three quarters.
