It’s been more than a month since Highland Park has played a girls basketball game at home. But the Lady Scots aren’t showing any signs of road weariness.
HP crushed Irving MacArthur 60-22 on Friday for their second straight emphatic win to start District 7-6A play.
MacArthur is a perennial powerhouse enduring a rebuilding season, but it was still an impressive showing for the Lady Scots (12-5, 2-0), who allowed their fewest points in any game this season.
It also provided momentum for HP as it prepares for the bulk of the 7-6A schedule in 2023. The Lady Scots topped Richardson, another perennial playoff contender, by 22 points a week ago.
HP still has two more district contests plus a holiday tournament before they return to their home floor in early January. The next game is Monday at Richardson Berkner.
