of 3-pointers, in the second quarter, and senior Gabby Picco drained a
trio of 3-pointers in a 22-10 run that pushed the Lady Wolverine
advantage to 34-18 at the halftime intermission.
Tomasso, who
scored the last seven points of the first half, pumped in the first 10
points of the third quarter for the Lady Wolverines on her way to 24
points in a 28-12 blitz that extended the lead to 62-30 entering the
final eight minutes.
She tied the school record with a pair of free throws in the opening moments of the fourth quarter.
Picco, who canned four 3-pointers, and sophomore Kennedy Westbrook added 12 points apiece in the win.
Maggie Huizinga and Evee Coleman led Owego with 16 points apiece.
