The Kohawks went 15-of-28 from three-point range, snapping the old school record of 13 triples in one game.
Mickey Hansche (Iowa City High) led the way with five 3-pointers. Courteney McCrary (Prairie) was 4-for-4, Jordan Holmes (Kennedy) went 3-for-4, Aleena Hobbs (Washiington) was 2-for-3 and Maddie Koolbeck (Jefferson) hit another.
