The Thousand Islands girls basketball team was able to figure out the Watkins Glen first half press, but had trouble scoring in the second half, losing 56-32 in the girls Class C basketball regional on Saturday at Tompkins Cortland Community College.

The Vikings (21-2) overcame three first quarter 10 second back court violations and trailed just by two points, 12-10 when the first quarter ended. Courtney Evans-Eppolito scored seven of her team-high 22 points in the second quarter as Thousand Islands trailed 28-19.

But the shots failed to fall in the second half for the Vikings, who didn't make a basket until there were four minutes left in the game. Thousand Islands finished with just three buckets in the second half, all from Evans-Eppolito.

Watkins Glen (20-2) was led by Amanda Pike with a game-high 30 points. The Senecas leading scorer converted on 13 of 15 free throws in the game.
