The Varsity Lady Hilltoppers bounced back from a tough last week to overpower Parsippany 40-30 in the last home game of the year. The first half was a defensive struggle, as Parsippany couldn't buy a hoop underneath and Summit missing from the outside. Some key buckets by Renee Freeden and Katelyn Allocco staked Summit to a 13-9 halftime lead. The third quarter saw the intensity ramp up, and a nice effort by Melissa Scott helped Summit to a 28-17 lead, which they quickly widened in the fourth quarter, as Senior Lauren Magness hit two impressive jumpers and Jenna Wilson hit a length of the court driving lay-up which saw Summit extended their lead to 34-17. But at that moment the tide turned and some unlucky turnovers caused by Parsippany's press closed the gap to 36-29. Megan Osmulski set some crushing picks to help break the press, and Alethia Martinez provided some senior ball handling to run some clock down. At the end some key buckets by Jamie Osmulski, who finished with a game high 11 points, and Katelyn Allocco who finished with 7, made the difference for a big win
