Isabella Arrisgado added 13 and a pair of 3s and Hailey Perez and Khansas Tuisamatatele rounded out the double digit scoring with 10 each.

Maryknoll (2-0), who dropped down to Division II for the season, built a 35-16 lead over Na Menehune at halftime.

Moanalua (0-2) played without point guard Braylee Riturban, who was recovering from a knee injury.

Shailoh Liilii led all scorers with 20 points and sank eight of her 14 free throw attempts in their second defeat on the season.

The Spartans finished 11 for 14 (78.6 percent) from the free throw line while Na Menehune shot 14 for 26 (53.8 percent).
