A late Spruce Mountain rally led to the Phoenix taking the lead, but Megan Jordan’s clutch free throw won the title for the Eagles.
“We got down by two. I was like, We still got time. So, I just trusted us. We just like to run faster than any team we play, and it’s working on the season,” said Abby Radel, sophomore.
