MARIA STEIN - Host Marion Local powered its way to a big early lead and convincingly defeated Ada 57-29 in Div. IV first round sectional girls basketball play Thursday evening.
Third-seeded ML led 8-0 and built an 18-4 advantage after one period of play. The Flyers stretched the margin to 34-10 by halftime, led by 33 points at the three-quarter mark, and were never threatened.
Ada kept hustling and won the fourth quarter, 9-4.
Three ML girls tallied double figures as nine of the 15 Flyers who saw action scored in their balanced attack.
