Farmington’s girls’ basketball team used a significant height advantage to shut down Bristol Eastern 48-31 Monday night in a tough road match-up for the Lancers.
Eastern only trailed by four at the half, 21-17, but started the third quarter missing a couple of easy lay-ups and never recovered after that.
Farmington held the Lancers to 14 points in the second half, including a dismal 5 point fourth quarter, and won going away. They played an extended 3-2 zone for most of the game, and Eastern had trouble getting off shots from both inside and on the perimeter.
Autumn Udoh was the only Eastern player to reach double figures with a ten point night.
Sarah Bertolette was dominant for Farmington, scoring 23, including 15 in the second half.
The Lancers next game will be Friday when they host Northwest Catholic at 6:30.
