GIRLS BASKETBALL: Cougars hold off Mustangs in thrilling crosstown contest
The Christopher High girls basketball team shot out to an 11-0 lead midway through the first quarter, held that same-sized advantage at the half, carried a nine-point cushion into the final quarter and led by 14 with 3:45 to play in the game.
