AUBURNDALE – Lindsay Gotz scored 10 points and Auburndale used a stifling defensive performance in the first half to down Greenwood 30-19 in the girls basketball teams’ season-opener.

Auburndale finished 6 of 10 from the line, making four of 5 of 8 in the first half as it built its double-digit lead.
