Laura Pierce was a fantastic 9-of-10 from the line as she racked up a team-high 13 points in Pinkerton's 43-34 win over Exeter in the Class L quarterfinals. A.J. Guidi was close behind with 10 points, and Jill Johnston, who held Exeter's leading scorer Maddy Blais to just 8 points, chipped in 9 of her own.
"Our defense kicked in and we contolled the ball," coach John Barry said. "We kicked in a little bit and from there we controlled the game. Laura Pierce went to the basket very well."
The second-seeded Astros face No. 6 Trinity on Tuesday at 6 p.m. at Southern New Hampshire.
