Hale led the Highlanders (2-1) with 15 points and nine rebounds. Toree Morris and Erica Hale each chipped in 11 points in the non-district game. Kristi Robinson added nine assists.
Cathy Smith paced the Terriers (2-1) with 24 points and 13 rebounds.
With 40 seconds remaining in the game, Glenvar held a three-point lead and possession of the ball. But Smith stole the ball and hit a layup to cut Byrd's deficit to one point with 15 seconds left.
The Highlanders then lost possession and fouled the Terriers' Wendy Hayden, who made the front end of a one-and-one to knot the score at 54 with nine seconds remaining.
In last week's William Byrd Tip-Off Tournament, the Group AA Terriers beat the Group A Highlanders by seven points in the championship game.
``Any time you can play a program as good as Byrd is, we're pleased to be competitive, let alone win it,'' said Dennis Layman, Glenvar's coach.
William Campbell 42
Liberty 41

Shannon Jurkus and Sue Cowlbeck led Liberty with 12 points apiece.

Altavista 51
ALTAVISTA - Shannon Shevitz bombarded Altavista with eight 3-pointers en route to a game-high 27 points, leading the Golden Eagles to victory in their Seminole District opener.
