The Grand Haven and Spring Lake girls basketball teams clashed on Friday night in a classic battle that went shot for shot.

The largest margin by either team was reached at the final score as Grand Haven topped Spring Lake, 51-45.

The Bucs used 10 of 12 free-throw shooting in the fourth quarter to find the edge they needed to find the win.

Grand Haven took a 28-25 edge into half after both teams played to an even, 13-13 first quarter.

But Spring Lake responded in the third and was able to tie the score heading into the final eight minutes.

Grand Haven was led by three players in double figures as Caydee Constant scored a game-high 16 points. Alyssa Hatzel put up 14 points and Zoe Spoelman added 10.

The 3-2 Lakers were led by Alex Cart with 14 points and six rebounds. Jennifer Judge scored 10 points and grabbed six rebounds while Ella Andree had nine points and six assists.

Spring Lake now takes a break during the holiday season and starts back up with a rivalry game against Fruitport on January 7.
