REDMOND — Ridgeview coach Randi Davis loves tough games. And on Tuesday night, her Ravens got one.

Summit, which entered the night having won seven of its last eight games, received 21 first-half points from Sarah Reeves on its way to its closest victory of the season, a 59-55 Intermountain Hybrid girls basketball road victory.

“We came out tough,” Davis said. “We had a good game plan and good preparation. We came out ready to play.”

Reeves finished with a game-high 28 points for Summit (9-3), and Sarah Heinly contributed 13 points.

For Ridgeview (6-5), Chloe Ross led the way with 22 points, 15 rebounds and seven blocks, Kendal Durre had 12 points, and McKenzie Hidalgo totaled 11 points.

The Ravens played the visiting Storm to a 16-16 tie after the first quarter, but being outscored 19-17 in the second, 16-15 in the third and 8-7 in the fourth period added up to Ridgeview’s second straight loss and third in the last four games.

But for Davis, there was no taking away from Tuesday’s defeat.

“We’ve just focused on how proud we are to compete with the top teams in the area and how far we’ve come since last year,” said Davis, whose team went 2-22 last season.
