On a Monday night at Winland gymnasium, there was good news and bad news for the Zanesville lady Blue Devils. The bad news? They failed to score 60 at home for the first time this year at home. The good news? They still won. Thanks to a late fourth quarter push where they made visiting Dublin Jerome play the whole floor, Zanesville netting a 10 point victory, 44-34, after the score was tied at 16 at halftime. Freshman Shiloh Murphy scored a game high 14 points.
