The gap between the scores widened throughout the quarters, but the Nazareth girls remained determined to give their best.
Annika Tan led Nazareth with eight points while Alianna Zhang and Lucy Wang contributed six points each.
“I thought we could’ve done worse, so I’m pretty proud of the outcome and the experience of playing with higher batches,” Tan shared.
Nazareth had a chance at the start of the second quarter to close a 2-point gap but struggled.
Ms. Calilong from Nazareth joined the game in the latter half of the fourth quarter, scoring two points.
However, Zion’s years of experience on the court coupled with their height advantage sealed a clear victory against Nazareth.
It was a thrilling exhibition match for both batches with the youngest players having the memorable experience of competing with their seniors.
