LOUISVILLE — No. 1-seeded Monarch girls basketball hung on to beat No. 4 Fossil Ridge, 51-47, on Tuesday to advance to the Great 8.

Fossil Ridge was hoping to get revenge after a 17-point loss the last time these two teams played, but they couldn’t pull out the win.

Senior Raegen Rohn led the way for three Monarch players in double figures, cashing in three 3-pointers for 13 points. Peyton Carter added 12, while Sally Sroge had 10.

Monarch will play No. 6-seeded Fairview in the Great 8, Friday at the Denver Coliseum.
