The Warriors outscored Clinton by wide margins in every quarter of their 71-30 non-conference win Tuesday.

Paige Butler's 20 points led all scores, with Kim Wellnitz joining her in double digits with 13.

Black Hawk led 16-6 after the first quarter and 35-14 by halftime. Black Hawk then bumped its lead to 53-23 heading into the final frame.

Head coach Mike Flanagan saw his team continue to dominate all game, regardless of who was in the lineup.
