Meg Spohn poured in a team-best 13 points and Bridget Stafford was right behind her with 12 of her own to lead the Olentangy girls basketball team to a 52-39 non-league win over host Licking Valley Thursday night.

Things were tight most of the way. The teams were tied at 22 at the break and the Braves owned a slim two-point lead, 33-31, after three quarters. They pulled away in the fourth, though, outscoring the hosts 19-8 to seal the deal.

Isaiah Alsip had a game-high 34 points for Galion while Troy Scowden had 23 to pace BV. Dylan Herbert and Dylan Thompson also finished in double figures for the Barons, closing with 18 and 10 points, respectively.
