HAMMOND—The Walker Lady Cats outlasted St. Thomas 39-35 to win the Lady Falcons
Invitational Tournament in finals action Saturday. The Lady Cats cashed in 7-of-9
free throws in the final five minutes to overtake the Lady Falcons in a
defensive battle that featured four lead changes, four ties, and
one fan tossed for bad behavior. Albany took advantage of a Loranger team missing two
starters to win the consolation game 43-37.
Albany 43 , Loranger 37
The Albany Lady Hornets took advantage 33 tries from the
charity strip scoring 25 points to secure a 43-37 win over Loranger in the
Consolation game. The Lady Wolves were limited with the absence of two senior
starters and Albany took advantage jumping out to a 21-12 lead after two
periods. Loranger rallied in the second half outscoring the Lady Hornets
25-22, but it was not enough as Albany’s early margin secured the win.
Chelsea Rogers and Taylor Bankston paced Albany with
12 and 10 points respectively. Whitney Anthony was tops for Loranger with 12.
Walker 39, St. Thomas 35
In a contest dominated by stellar defensive play by both
squads, free throws proved to be the difference as the Lady Cats of Walker made
good on 7-of-9 charity shots down the stretch to claim top tournament
honors over St. Thomas 39-35.
The Lady Falcons opened up an early 7-4 lead at the 4:33 mark
of the first period, but Walker rallied scoring eight unanswered points to gain the
advantage. Hannah Fohne paced the Lady Cat rally scoring six of her game high 16 points.
Shelby DiMiceli nailed a three-pointer with 6:46 showing to
open the final period to put the Lady Falcons up 28-25, and after a Walker free
throw, Casey Buie hit a short jumper to extend the St. Thomas lead to four at
30-26. Walker got a lay-up by Fohne and a pair of free throws by Morgan
Melancon to tie the score at 30. The Lady Falcons answered with a three-pointer
by DiMiceli, but it would their final lead of the game as Walker outscored St.
Thomas 9-2 the rest of the way.
DiMiceli was tops for St. Thomas with
eight points hitting two three-pointers.
