I think no one was more surprised than I was that Jana Cross was scoreless at the half, but she made up for it with her 17 pts in the 3rd qtr. Every player on both teams played down the stretch and I hope I got everybody's name right. Lewis played well in the 1st half as their defense was good, but needed a little more scoring. Loretto's 47 pt 2nd half was too much for Lewis Co. as even Loretto's bench played well. Congratulations Loretto and see you Friday in Rudderville.

Wow, everybody scored for the Lady Mustangs! Great job in the second half to play the great basketball yall are capable of. Thanks for the report PageMan.

Thanks score3. Good luck against Deshler tonight. I'll be checking "The Times Daily" out of Florence for a report on the game. See you Friday.

 

P.S. I just checked the Times Daily and they said that Deshler is 21-1 with their only loss of the season to Loretto in the holiday tournament. I know that they will be seeking revenge tonight on their home court. Be careful down there.
