BOSTON — With junior Alyssa Schlehuber burying three 3-pointers in a little more than five minutes, the Cardinal Spellman girls' basketball team shot out to a quick 10-point lead in Saturday's MIAA Div. 3 South Sectional championship game with Archbishop Williams.
Then the mighty Casey struck back.
"She's a gunner," Spellman coach Pat Lamb said after senior Casey Capello's 25 points, including 18 in the second half, sparked the fifth-seeded Bishops (20-2) to their second straight sectional title with a 60-45 win over the second-seeded Cardinals (22-2) at UMass-Boston. "If she can get it off, it's going off, and when it's going in it looks good. And it was going in."
The Hanover resident single-handedly outscored Spellman, 14-9, in a third quarter that saw the Bishops build an insurmountable nine-point lead as they advanced to a state semifinal-round date with North champion Pentucket (21-2) at 4:15 Tuesday afternoon at the TD Banknorth Garden.
