Defending state champ Byron, led by Paige Holloway’s 22 points, got hot in the second half and cruised past Bloomington Central Catholic 55-32 to win another championship. But it wasn’t pretty for either team early in the game Saturday. Byron (34-2) led 19-16 at the half. Byron shot 18.2 percent from the field, while Bloomington (22-11) hit only 9.1 percent of its shots. Holloway got the hot hand in the final two minutes of the third quarter, draining three 3-pointers and a layup as Byron began to pull away. Bailey Burrows and Lexi DeVries added 10 each for Byron. Bailey Coffman led Bloomington with 10 points, while Lauren Shanks scored eight.
