Nicole Pottkotter paced the Tribe with 12 points. Emily May added seven points and seven rebounds, and Josie Guggenbiller also had seven points.
Both teams scored 13 points in the first quarter of the eighth grade boys game, but the Indians stifled Ansonia from that point on. They allowed just two points each in the second and third quarters and five in the fourth for the 31-point win.
