March 16, 1984 - Diane Decker pours in a game-high 38 points to power Marian to a 92-45 victory over Biglerville in the opening round of the PIAA Class 1A state playoffs. The Fillies, coached by Elsie Tolan, use a pair of eight-point runs in the opening quarter to grab a 16-2 lead. The advantage swells to 26 points by halfime, and 14 more points from Decker in the third quarter helps extend the margin to 37. Playing without senior co-captain Maura Hydro, due to a death in the family, the winners get a lift from Mary Rose Delpero, who collects a career-high 26 points. Gracia Perilli also chips in with 10 points.
