CPHS Basketball: Girls rout Owasso 64-44, Armstead scores 16

The Class 6A No. 11 ranked Charles Page High School girls’ basketball team (13-6, 6-5) rolled to a dominant 64-44 win against Owasso (4-16, 2-9) Tuesday night at the Ed Dubie Field House to snap a three-game losing streak and get back above .500 in Frontier Valley Conference play. They were led by sophomore standout Journey Armstead with 16 points, but nine players contributed and Leyshia Morris put up a career-high 11.

Owasso took its only lead of the game with a three-pointer from sophomore Chloe Stocksen, who led her team with 16, but the Sandites went on a run for an 11-3 advantage that the Rams never recovered from. By the end of the first quarter the Sandites led 14-5.

Stocksen scored her team’s first seven points and the Sandites led 25-7 before Karson Zumwalt entered the book. The second quarter was the most explosive for the Sandites, who took a 37-18 lead into the locker room. 

The third quarter was equally lopsided and the home team took its biggest lead at 55-27 before the Rams began to battle back in the fourth against the Sand Springs third string. 

The Sandites had one of their best shooting performances of the season and shot a season-high 36% from three-point range. Morris led the team in accuracy, going three-of-four on the long ball. 

Sand Springs will return to action Friday at 6:30 p.m. with a conference road game at No. 19 Jenks (9-9, 4-6), who they previously defeated 56-46 at home and 54-41 at the Enid Tournament. Owasso will host No. 7 Sapulpa (17-3, 10-1), who routed the Rams 50-26 earlier this year.
