Erie girls beat Eagles by 11 points
ERIE -- Uniontown head girls' coach Dustin Miller said his team came out "flat" here Friday night in a 34-23 loss to Erie in a non-league contest.
The boys' teams also played but a result was not available to the Tribune in time to meed Friday night's deadline.
The girls trailed 9-5 after one period. Only 5 total points were scored in the second as Erie went into the locker room with an 11-8 lead.
Each matched their first-half total in the third quarter but Erie increased the margin to 22-16.
"Emotionally we came out flat," Miller said. "We made a couple of runs, but Erie always had an answer. Our defense played well. Unfortunately we can't seem to buy a basket."
DaNisha Robinson led Uniontown (2-5) with 9 points and 9 rebounds. Hayden Rathbun scored 5 points and grabbed 6 boards. No other Eagle had more than 4 points.
Cleaver led Erie with 17 points, half the Devils' output.
