AREA ROUNDUP

LAPWAI — Highland’s Hailey Click drilled a 3-pointer to tie the game and Alli-Mae Moddrell made the go-ahead bucket off of a post move as the Huskies of Craigmont defeated Deary 32-30 in a 1A district tournament girls basketball loser-out game Tuesday at Lapwai High School.

Click compiled 13 points and Moddrell had seven for defensive-minded Highland (12-11).

Deary (14-6) had just three players reach the scoreboard, led by Kaylee Wood with 14 points and Madelyn Proctor with 10.
