The win boosted HCHS to 10-6 overall this season with a 5-2 mark inside the Northeastern Coastal Conference.

After First Flight hit four of the next six to close it to 13-6, the Bears closed out the first quarter with buckets by Futrell and Burden to lead handily (17-6) at the end of the first quarter.

That roll continued in the second quarter when the HCHS defense shut out First Flight while scoring 14 points of their own. Jones led the way with seven during the period while Mitchell added three and Futrell and Kayla Everette scored a hoop each.

The Bears led 31-6 at the intermission.
