Brownsburg held a 21-19 halftime lead and extended that advantage to 36-32 after three quarters. The Millers came back to lead 43-42 after Hutchinson hit another triple, but the Bulldogs regained the lead on Elle McCulloch’s 3 and held it from there.
Meredith Tippner scored 20 points to lead Noblesville, also collecting eight rebounds and making four assists. Hutchinson totaled three 3s on her way to 11 points and got six rebounds. Blower had two 3s for the game while C.C. Quigley made five rebounds.
