“We were missing layups, and when you don’t convert on those in this type of game, it’s going to come back and haunt you pretty quickly,” Okawville coach Michelle Hasheider-Burianek said.
Okawville’s shooting woes continued in the second half as Calhoun took a 26-point lead.
“Our role players stepped up tonight, and our defense played well. Okawville is a tough young team and will probably be right there again next year,” Calhoun coach Aaron Baalman said.
Okawville junior Madison Hackstadt had 17 points, including three 3-pointers.
Calhoun was led by junior Junie Zirkelbacch with 19 points, including a perfect 6 for 6 from the free-throw line. Senior Jordan Holland added 15 points.
