Zoe Navarro impacted every phase of Thursday's game to power the Wildcats to a shocking 69-41 rout over Waubonsie Valley in DuPage Valley Conference play. The Wildcats clinched the conference title and ended Waubonsie Valley's 5-game winning streak
The 5-foot-4 Navarro, a three-year varsity player, fixed the oversight with a prolific second quarter, sparking the Wildcats with her energy, passing, shooting, defense and penetration skills.
Navarro made consecutive baskets early in the second quarter to kick-start the blowout, snagging her own missed shot and powering up a shot in traffic under the basket. She added a hard-driving layup to pad the lead to 22-12."Last year I started but I didn't have much of a scoring role and this year I really stepped into that and I had to contribute more," Navarro said.
Poulakidas said the Wildcats played an all-around game to knock off the Warriors, who were outscored 19-4 in the third quarter.
