Thursday – December 16: The Lady Tigers hosted Lowellville this past Thursday and it wasn't pretty for the Orange & Black. The Wellsville Ladies got blown out of the Tiger's Den by the Lady Rockets.
The Lady Tigers were trailing by 8 points at the end of one. Lowellville took a 27 point advantage into the locker room at half-time. At the end of three quarters that advantage grew to 48 points and the rest was history. Wellsville got more productive in the 4th quarter with scoring 28 points but by that time Lowellville's starters were resting on the bench. The final score was Lady Rockets 79-43.
We've heard it said that even winning teams have to suffer through one bad, sloppy loss in the course of a season. We're praying that our Lady Tigers can regroup and get it together. They're a much better team than what we saw the other evening. Surely that game was the one bad one they were talking about. Wellsville slips to 3&1 on the season with that loss.
In the first game the JVs lost a heart breaker, by two points, by a score of 38-36. Dawn Johnson's last second three point shot was just a fraction of an inch off the mark.
The Lady Tigers return to action Monday at Beaver Local.
Good Luck Ladies...

My son Phil put me up to checking you out. I'm a retired United Methodist Pastor and served First United Methodist Church in Wellsville from 1979 - 1986 - not all that long ago. We lived in the parsonage at 743 Main Street, a huge century old brick house built on an old cemetery.
Rev. Melvin W. Lindberg
Rev. Lindberg - Welcome to Looking Out My Window. We appreciate the comment.
The Methodist churches in Wellsville & the one out in Highlandtown now have Kenny Malone as their pastor. He's assisted by a lady minister.
Know the parsonage well but Historical Society President Brassy Beresford tells us that the cemetery was actually up the street closer to 7th & Main before it was relocated.
We cover the Ministerial Assoc. meetings regularly. Our last entry for them was back in November. They held their annual Christmas party this month and there wasn't a meeting. The meet regularly the second Tuesday of the month at 9 AM at Tonda's Place on the 4th St. Square. Rev. Jay Nightengale is the president. You may know him. He's another retired Methodist minister and now lives out in Frischkorn Hts.
God bless...
