The Class 6A No. 11 ranked Charles Page High School girls’ basketball team (14-6, 7-5) completed a 3-0 season sweep of No. 19 Jenks (10-10, 5-7) Friday night at Frank Herald Field House, beating the Lady Trojans 62-51 behind an 18-point effort from Journey Armstead and 16 points from Raegan Padilla, spoiling Trojan Senior Night in a comeback effort.

Four Jenks girls hit three-pointers in the first quarter and the Trojans led 17-15 by the end of it. The Sandites played from the hole till a two from Madison Burris tied it at 11-11, and Bayleigh Cheney gave them their first lead on the next goal. A three from Madison Luciano capped a six point run at 17-13, but Armstead had the final say of the quarter.

A 9-2 run from the Trojans gave them their biggest lead at 26-18, but Hailey Jackson scored two in a row and Leyshia Morris added a three to cut it to a one-point game before Haley Meely scored the final bucket of the half. 

Armstead missed the final minutes of the second quarter after taking a hard fall but reentered the game in the third. Then Jackson went down at the 4:20 mark of the third and didn’t rejoin the game till 4:47 in the fourth.

Three-straight layups from Armstead, Burris, and Padilla tied it at 37-37 with 1:14 in the quarter. A three from Meely briefly reclaimed the Jenks lead, but Padilla hit back to back threes, including a buzzer beater, to take a 43-40 advantage into the home stretch. 

Makenna Burch and Luciano tied it up on two occasions in the fourth, but the Sandites soon began to pull away. Back-to-back steals from Jackson and Padilla led to their biggest lead at 61-50, then Burch and Padilla traded free throws to end the game. 

Meely led all scorers with 20 points, but Burch was the only other Trojan in double digits with 10. Sand Springs had three double-digit scorers, with Jackson scoring 10. Both teams had eight players in the book.

Sand Springs basketball will return to action Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. with a conference road game against No. 3 Booker T. Washington (18-2, 10-1) as they attempt to repay a 65-39 January loss. Jenks will host No. 7 Sapulpa (17-3, 10-1) Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. The Chieftains won their last meeting 69-47.
