The Owls controlled play from start to finish, opening up a 12-4 lead after one quarter and extending that to 22-10 by halftime. A 19-8 third quarter buried their hosts as they rolled to their second win of the season.
“Half court defense was the key for the Lady Owls tonight,” coach Don Bogan said. “The girls really worked hard on the half court defensive pressure.
“The girls from Conwell-Egan played hard from beginning to the end.”
Bensalem (2-1) will be back in action next Tuesday when the Owls will travel to Pennsbury for the SOL opener for both squads.
