“Addie as usual was our leader, handling the ball and scoring,” Wooley said. “Cami also had a great game. All of our girls on the team played well. They had a lot of big kids and we switched offenses some in the second half. I thought overall, our kids played well.”

Southwestern, 23-1, plays at 11:30 a.m. Saturday against 15-7 Tolono Unity at Germantown Middle School, north of Peoria in the state quarterfinals.
