FOX CROSSING - Emily Vogel erupted for 38 points and the Zephyrs hit just enough free throws down the stretch to hold off Oostburg in a battle of Big East division champions.

SMC was able to get the win despite playing without senior starter Sienna Anderson as well as junior reserve Kate Nackers, according to head coach Jeff Chew. Both were out due to illness.
The Zephyrs were also able to navigate the final minutes of the game with four players with four fouls.
“It was a huge win for us,” Chew said. “It was just a nice win for the team and we actually pulled up a couple of kids from JV who filled in a few minutes here and there during the game. That was a positive.
“Plus, Emily shot fantastic in the first half. She was lights out.”
Oostburg (22-2), ranked No. 1 in D3, was led by Riley Ketterhagen’s 20 points with sister Addy scoring 17. Brynn Wisse also had 16 points for Oostburg.
