Delavan-Darien girls dominate Whitewater; Parkview wins again

The Comets, who nipped the Whippets two of three times last season—including a regional final victory—jumped to a 32-8 halftime lead.

Alana Cesarz led the defending Southern Lakes champions with 17 points, while Courtney Flood added 15.

Whitewater, now a member of the Rock Valley North, had problems on offense in its season opener. Courtney Trewyn led the Whippets with 10 points.
