Lady Tigers lose to T-Town in Sectional Competition

by Valerie Lau

Thursday, February 14, our Lady Tigers Varsity basketball team traveled to Robinson to compete in the first round of Sectionals.

Previously, the Ladies proved dominant, winning all the Regional games including the Championship. Unfortunately for them though, they couldn’t get Sectionals.

The game started off rough for the ladies and once lead scorer Allison Englum got her knee injury things started going downhill.

“I think the game was bad. We did well at the beginning but things just started to slip away…” By the fourth quarter things started slipping even worse for the ladies.

“We knew it was going to be our last game in the fourth quarter. It was a sad loss but the seniors tried and we were happy we made it that far,” says varsity player Nique Tyler. “Maybe we’ll do better next year if we have more than 20 fans.” The final score was 57-40.

Student support can help a lot; it can change the outcome of a game. The Lady Tigers have ended their season for this year but for next year: make sure you attend as many games as you can to show your support!
