Armstrong rains treys
St. Joseph-Ogden senior Ella Armstrong hit three treys in the first quarter on her way to a game-high 14 points against Illinois Valley Central (8-12) in Thursday's 46-26 win over the Grey Ghost. The Spartans exploded early to a 14-point lead at the end of the first quarter thanks to five points from Ashlyn Lannert, two baskets from Payton Jacob, and Armstrong's nine. Marley Williamson led IVC's offense with 13 points. Sage Geltmaker added six points to round out the top scorers for the hosts. Undefeated in conference play, the Spartans (13-5 overall, 3-0 IPC) play their next two contests on the road starting tomorrow with Mattoon. After their non-conference battle down south, SJO plays St. Thomas More on Monday in north Champaign.Box Score
