Things got interesting in the final quarter as Olympic chipped away going on a subtle 13-0 run before BC’s Madison Shepard and Brianna Byrnes both came up clutch at the free throw line, sinking both ends each to keep Olympic distanced for the remainder of the game.

Willow Jackson had 12 points to complement Aasland’s efforts. Bellevue is now 3-9 (6-13 overall) and travels to Peninsula this Saturday for a 4:00 p.m. tipoff.
