No one can say that the Palmer girls’ basketball team doesn’t learn from its mistakes.

The Pikes Peak No. 4 Terrors were beat in early January by Sand Creek, but would not fall prey again. Boasting an improved defense that forced 27 turnovers, Palmer defeated visiting Sand Creek 61-32 on Tuesday night.
