At Millinocket, the PVHS Lady Howlers were able to hold off the potent offensive firepower of the Stearns Lady Minutemen, 57-52. This win gives PVHS a 2-0 start to the season and drops Stearns to 1-1.

The Lady Howlers earned the lead early in the first quarter and never gave the lead back the entire game. Coach Case credits the win to PVHS girls ability to execute their defensive game plan.

Lexi Ireland had another big night, powering PVHS with 27 points, 13 rebounds, and five assists. Laney Harding gave the Lady Howlers 12 points on four three pointers. Stearns, A. Alley’s 17 points and Munoa’s 11 points were top tallies for the Lady Minutemen.
