Paje has made 134 three-point baskets in three seasons for Edison, bringing her to within three of the Orange County career record, which was set by Brea-Olinda’s Aimee McDaniel from 1986-90. If this week is anything like the last one for Paje, who made 11 three-pointers in two games, she should break the record tonight against Rosary or Thursday against Santa Ana. Paje set school single-game records for scoring (50 points) and assists (16) in Edison’s 89-87 loss to Huntington Beach Thursday. She made seven three-pointers in the game and has scored 20 points or more in her last five. “We used to call her a streak shooter, but if a bad night is 20 and a good night is 50, then I can handle that,” Edison Coach Phil Abraham said. Paje scored 27 points in a 76-70 loss to Ocean View Tuesday.
