Abby Forsyth scored 14 points to lead a balanced Union attack.

Four Titans combined for nine 3-pointers in a game where Union had just five two-point field goals.

Forsyth’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the first quarter sparked Union. The Titans outscored Evergreen 16-4 in the second quarter to take a 29-12 halftime lead.

“We didn’t recover in that second quarter at all,” Evergreen coach Jay Foreman said.

On senior night, Foreman praised the play of JaNae Calaway. Though she doesn’t usually start, Calaway scored seven points to tie for the team high.

Union’s regular season finishes at 10-9 overall and 6-6 in the 4A Greater St. Helens League. The Titans are a half-game ahead of Mountain View for third place.
