Already nine games into the basketball season, the Mansfield Jr High Lady Tigers have taken seven of those teams to the cleaners with the Lincoln Lady Wolves being their latest victims. The first quarter ended with Mansfield down 12-17. But in true Lady Tiger fashion, the girls were only toying with the Lady Wolves. By halftime, the Lady Tigers were up 32-26 and they were able to hold tight to the lead ending with a final score of 54-50 Mansfield.
Putting the competition on skates was Natalie Allison as she led her team with 15 points. Alyson Edwards followed suit with 10 points while Harlie Fuller trailed with nine. Kynslee Ward and Seven Sanderson each brought in seven points. And Skylynn Harris snagged six. Qualified glass cleaners for the evening were Allison and Sanderson with six rebounds along with Harris and Ward with three apiece.
The Lady Tigers dished out a total of 19 dimes with Allison and Ward combining for 10 of those assists. And with more steals than Butch Cassidy was Harris and Allison with two each followed by Ward, Fuller, Edwards, and Sanderson each taking away one. Up next, its the “Battle for Scott County” as the Lady Tigers hit the road to Waldron on Thursday, December 19 to take on the Lady Bulldogs with the 7th grade starting first at 4:30 p.m.
