Ephrata girls take 64-23 win over Quincy

QUINCY — The Ephrata Tigers girls basketball team leveraged their height, experience and an aggressive defense to run their record to 5-0 with a 64-23 win over the Quincy Jackrabbits Thursday night in Quincy. The Tigers used a pressing defense and good outside shooting to build a 17-2 lead in the first five minutes of the first quarter. Ephrata Coach Alain Black said the team used its defense to make offensive opportunities, and that’s been a focus of the early season.
