(El Monte, Ca) \u2013 Bishop Amat is headed to the Lady Knights Tournament semi-finals after out running Sierra Vista for four quarters with a 70-39 win.<\/p>\n
The Lancers were able to withstand a helter-skelter pace that was set by the Lady Dons the entire night with end to end action.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe like to play fast,\u201d said Bishop Amat head coach Richard Wiard.\u00a0 \u201cSierra Vista likes to play faster than we do.\u00a0 You could see that in the second quarter.\u00a0 We don\u2019t mind running up and down as we have some skilled players.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bishop Amat had five players in double-digits in scoring and led by Arielle Wideman\u2019s 15 points.<\/p>\n
Sierra Vista tried to keep it close after being outscored 19-4 in the first five minutes of the game by outscoring the Lancers 17-15 in the remainder of the half.<\/p>\n
\u201cI told the girls to keep fighting,\u201d said Lady Dons head coach Keith Locklear.\u00a0 \u201cWe aren\u2019t going to lie down against anyone and we will battle the entire night.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 13-point deficit that the Lady Dons had at the half was a close as they would get as Bishop Amat was able to blow the game open with a 23-point quarter.\u00a0 Much of the offense in the quarter was done by Wideman\u2019s seven points, Aundrea Villanueva\u2019s six points and Gina Henderson\u2019s five points.<\/p>\n
The Lady Dons were unable to get on track in the second half as they were unable to make a basket to answer and stop the Lancer scoring run.<\/p>\n
The final quarter saw the reserves come in for Bishop Amat as they had already built their lead to 57-30.<\/p>\n
Sierra Vista was led by Estrella Rivera who had 12 points.<\/p>\n
The Lancers will now meet La Canada for a spot in the Lady Knights Tournament final on Saturday at 6:00 pm.<\/p>\n
