PEDRO — It didn’t rain during Tuesday’s Division 3 sectional finals, but it certainly poured when it came to points.

In their most lopsided win of the season, the Redwomen routed the New Lexington Lady Panthers 14-0 to capture the program’s first-ever sectional title.

The Redwomen (14-1-2) will host St. Joseph at 6 p.m. Monday in the Division 3 district semifinals.
