Delavan-Darien High rode the free-throw line to revenge Tuesday night in Southern Lakes girls basketball.

The Comets (10-1, 5-1) made 10 of 12 attempts from the line in overtime as they topped visiting Union Grove, 59-47, to atone for their only loss of the season.

Marissa Moehling’s back-door layup with three seconds left lifted Delavan-Darien into a 45-45 tie to force the overtime.

Karli Collins got a basket and free throw off the opening tip in the overtime to give Delavan-Darien a 48-45 lead. After the Broncos (4-4, 3-2) pulled within 48-47, the Comets went to work at the line with a 9-for-11 effort down the stretch to put the game out of reach.

Alana Cesarz made all four of her attempts to lead Comets’ final surge at the line, Courtney Flood was 3-for-5, and Mallory Epping was 2-for-2.

Flood and Cesarz led Delavan-Darien with 17 and 16 points, respectively. Flood had four of the Comets’ five three-point goals, and Cesarz had eight of the 24 free throws made by Delavan-Darien.

Alyssa Thomas scored 16 points for Union Grove, and Jacqie Servi added 14.
