Hill-Murray girls win in four overtimes

GIRLS' BASKETBALL

Hill-Murray wins in 4OT

• HILL-MURRAY 103, MAHOTMEDI 96, 4OT: Led by senior Tessa Cichy's school-record 51-point performance, Hill-Murray overcame a four-point halftime deficit, scoring 68 points after the break in a grueling four-overtime victory against Mahtomedi. Cichy, who played the entire fourth quarter and all the overtime periods with four fouls, also set a school mark for free throws made, connecting on 24 of 27 shots from the line. The two Classic Suburban foes' 199 combined points was nearly double the scoring output in their previous matchup on Jan. 6, which Hill-Murray won easily, 61-45. Mahtomedi's Ali Greene scored 31 to lead the Zephyrs, who lost for the seventh consecutive game.

• EDEN PRAIRIE 53, EDINA 46: Senior Jackie Johnson scored 16 points, senior Shayne Mullaney added 14, and Class 4A, No. 3 Eden Prairie edged Class 4A, No. 4 Edina in a Lake Conference game. Hornets senior guard Katybeth Biewen led all scorers with 21 points.
