Ogemaw Heights has been enjoying a dream season as they entered Thursday night's game against Pinconning. And while the Spartans have struggled this year, the Heights came out determined not to take Pinconning lightly. Riding the dominating offense of Ashley Thompson and a smothering team defense, Ogemaw ran off to a 63-20 conference victory.

The Heights exploded in the first quarter for 26 points. Knocking down four three pointers, two by Ashley Thompson who tallied 15 first quarter points of her own, Ogemaw put on an offensive show of power. Pinconning joined in on the offensive rush by scoring eleven points of their own. The onslaught of points gave Ogemaw a 26-11 lead at the end of the first quarter.

Spreading the ball around the score sheet, Ogemaw racked up 13 more points in the second quarter. Even more impressive was their defense that stymied the Spartans holding them to only two second quarter points. At the half, the Heights had built a 39-13 lead.
