2015 Game
The 2015 game was a game of runs. The West jumped out to a huge lead, then the East roared back and took over and made it a close game the rest of the way. The West team started the game on a 16–4 run by buckets from Te'a Cooper and Katie Lou Samuelson, but the East flipped the switch using Marina Mabrey, Asia Durr, and Taylor Murray to lead their charge. The East lead 81=69 with just under 3 minutes left in the game, but the West made one last charge and got it to 3 points from a Samuelson 3-pointer with 32.7 seconds left. Durr made a couple of free throws with 6.1 seconds left to seal the victory for the East.
This was the highest scoring girls' game in the 14-year history.[1]
