It was a game you’d have to see to believe. The 7th Grade Mansfield Lady Tigers stayed neck-n-neck with the Charleston Lady Tigers until the very end when Mansfield pulled away for the win 12-10. There is never a dull moment when these two ground and pound schools go up against each other.
Leading the team in scoring was Raine Hecox with 7 points. Kynslee Ward and Alyson Edwards brought in the remaining 5 points. The Lady Tigers showed incredible hustle and dominance. One could even say they were fueled by sweat and driven by desire.
The Tigers showed hustle and heart in their game against Charleston. The Mansfield 7th grade boys fell short to Charleston 24-13 but it wasn’t from lack of effort. They played hard with everything that they had and will not let this loss get to them. The Tigers will continue to practice and move on to the next one.
The 7th Grade Mansfield Tigers will play in the Mansfield Jamboree on Saturday, December 8th. They will face Union Christian Academy at 10 am and Hackett at 1 pm.
