MILTON - MIlton rallied from five points down at halftime to take a one-point lead late in the third quarter, but Alyssa Latsha's third-quarter buzzer-beater and some hot-shooting from the outside, helped Selinsgrove outlast Milton, 44-33, to give Selinsgrove its first victory of the season.
Latsha's bucket made it 22-21 to end the third quarter, before Haylee Nava hit two 3-pointers early in the fourth quarter to push the lead to seven points, before Murphy O'Brien pushed the lead to double digits with her third 3-pointer of the game.
O'Brien had 11 points to lead Selinsgrove, while Latsha finished with six points, nine rebounds and five steals in the victory.
