Saipan Community School hosted Seventh Day Adventist yesterday and scored its first win at home with a 38-16 blowout over the visitors in the girls division of the 2009 Coalition of Private Schools Athletic Association.

Xuan Jun Lu added eight, while Alina Yoon and Lydin Johnson had four each. Han Mil Oh and Briana Fajardo also chipped in two points each.
The only SCS player who did not score was Rena Son.
