Culkin with career high in Rangers loss

Spencerport jumped out to an 11-point lead in the first quarter, but struggled offensively through most of the second as they fell to Victor 66-50 in girls’ basketball. The 50 points scored marked a season high to the team.

Sophomore Joie Culkin and senior guard Madison Motsay staked the Rangers to an early 12-2 lead and Megan Zaharkin added a free throw and a bank shot to help them build an 11-point advantage.

But Victor went on a 19-0 run and held Spencerport off the scoreboard for the first 7:10 of the second quarter to lead by six at halftime.

The Rangers offense recovered in the third quarter with Culkin scoring 12 of her career-best 25 points and Motsay adding a trey, but the Blue Devils built their lead to 12 after three quarters.

Spencerport added 13 points over the final eight minutes with seven coming from the free throw line.

In addition to her 25 points, Culkin added six rebounds and two steals. Motsay scored 17 points with five rebounds while Zaharkin tied for the team-lead with six rebounds to go with three points and a pair of steals.
