Moving on top to stay in the third quarter, Holley went on to down Albion 30-26 this afternoon in the consolation game of the Kendall girls basketball tournament.
Trailing 18-12, Holley closed the third period with an 11-0 run to take the lead for good at 23-18. Kyla Burne and Jayna Burris both had a pair of baskets and Mia Thom a three to key the Lady Hawks rally.
Albion closed to within one, 24-23, early in the final period on a basket by Jocelyn Friedl but could not pull even.
Burne answered with big back-to-back baskets upping the Holley lead to 28-23.
The closest Albion could get after that was at 28-26 on a three by Leah Pawlak as a steal and a layup at the buzzer by Burris capped off the Lady Hawks win.
Burne finished with 10, Brynn Thomas 8, Burris 6, Thom 5 and Hanna Ostrom 1 for the Lady Hawks.
Aaliyah Jones, Friedl and Melia Prince each scored 6, Pawlak 5 and Madison Markle 3 for the Purple Eagles.
