The visiting St. Mary's Rams (Stockton, Calif.) saw three players score in double figures as they doused Iolani, 82-44 in a semifinal game of the 8th annual Girls Iolani Prep Classic Friday night. St. Mary's will face Konawaena, who defeated nationally ranked Riverdale Baptist 49-41, in the title game Saturday.

Kat Tudor and Carlissa Shipp each scored 17 points with five 3-pointers made and Aquira DeCosta added 15. Shipp was a perfect 5-for-5 from beyond the arc.

The Rams were prolific from beyond the arc, going 13-for-25 from 3-point land. St. Mary's saw a lot of looks from deep thanks to good dribble penetration from the likes of Sierra Smith and Micole Cayton. The duo combined for 10 of the team's 18 assists.

Leading the host Raiders in the loss was Cami Aguinaldo with a team-high seven points. Kelsi Ikeda, Sierra Buscher and Brooke Maeda each added six points for Iolani. One bright spot for the home team was their proficiency from the charity stripe. The Raiders converted on 20 of their 24 free throw attempts (83.3 percent).

St. Mary's opened up the game on a 13-0 run before the first timeout was called. The Rams ability to apply pressure throughout the length of the court stymied Iolani's offense in the early stages of the game. Iolani's only points of the opening period was on a pair of free throws by reserve Lindsey Combs. St. Mary's led 28-2 at the end of the first quarter. 

Iolani made its way back into the game thanks to some foul trouble on St. Mary's, but it was never ever to recover from the early deficit.

Tip-off between the Wildcats and the Rams is slated for 8:00 p.m.
