Mid. Madison falls to Findlay Liberty-Benton in girls D-III state hoops final

By Marc Pendleton | Saturday, March 20, 2010, 01:31 PM

COLUMBUS — Middletown Madison fell to Findlay Liberty-Benton 66-44 in a battle of the unbeatens in the Division III girls state high school basketball championship on Saturday, March 20 at OSU’s Schottenstein Center.

The victory completes a perfect 27-0 season for the Eagles, who fell in last year’s sate semifinals. The Mohawks end 26-1.

Madison trailed 38-34 at halftime and drew within 40-38 when Rachel Blevins hit a jumper with 5:19 left in the third quarter. But FL-B unloaded a game-ending 28-10 run to win its first girls state hoops title.

Brittany Shields led the Mohawks with 13 points on 6 of 9 shooting. First-team All-Ohioan Ally Malott was held to 10 points on 4 of 14 shooting. She also collected a game-high nine rebounds.

Liberty-Benton’s trio of Amanda Hyde (23 points), Caite Craft (19) and Amber Peterson (13) provided most of its offensive output.
