MISSOULA — Glacier couldn’t hang on to a nine-point lead in the third period as Missoula Sentinel stormed back to claim a 45-40 Western AA girls basketball victory on Tuesday.

“They hit a three to kinda get back in it,” Glacier coach Kris Salonen said.

“We stayed in it, but they got aggressive and we kind of backed off. We didn’t play scared, just soft with our attacking.”

Sentinel (13-2, 5-2 Western AA) outscored Glacier 18-8 in the fourth quarter. Glacier (7-8, 2-5) led 20-18 at intermission.

Brooke Watkins topped the Wolfpack in scoring with 10 points. Nine of those points came on treys.

McCall Hasquet and Bryn Hasquet were scoring leaders for Sentinel with 14 and 13 points, respectively.
