Last Monday evening the Lady Tigers played host to the Lady Rockets of Lowellville. Wellsville led at the end of one quarter 16 - 14 and then it went down hill. At the half it was Lowellville 41 -34 and then the Lady Rockets came out of the locker room outscoring the Tigers 22 - 10 in the third. At the end of three it was Rockets 63 -44. Final score was Lowellville 85 - 63. Those three pointers are a killer. The Rockets had six of them.
The Lady Tigers played hard all evening but just couldn't get out of the hole. It was one of those nights when you couldn't buy a basket. They were getting off good shots but they just wouldn't fall through the hoop. They were playing aggressive all night but it wasn't meant to be. Rilee Livolsi picked up her fifth foul with 5:11 to go in the fourth to show you how aggressive they were playing. They weren't sloppy fouls.
Mikyla Tipton lead all scorers with 24 points. Irene Kiser added another 17 and the Ladies had four from outside the three point line.
The bright spot on the evening was the Reserves. They buried the Lady Rockets by a score of 48 - 12. Meika Dalrymple outscored the Rockets herself with a game high 18. Dawn Johnson contributed with six steals and Amanda Coles recorded six rebounds. The Reserves are now 10 & 1 for the season.

Last night, Thursday, the Lady Tigers travelled to Western Reserve. There was no Reserve game played. They were without the team's top scorer. Mikyla Tipton could not make the trip. Lavolsi was top scorer for the Tigers with nine points. The Tigers lost that game 61 -23. The two loses put the Ladies at 6 & 8 on the year. Being a much improved team they'll improve on that too. We just know they will. The Ladies travel to McDonald Monday night and will be back home Thursday.
Go Ladies...
