The Loranger Lady Wolves built a 23-point lead at 47-24 at
the 3:41 mark of the third period on a lay-up by Ashley Knippers, but
a five-minute scoring drought in the final period allowed the Lady Tigers
of Doyle to pull within seven at 48-41 on a jumper by junior Jennifer
MacDonald. Sophomore Tina Booth and senior Chelsey Gerarve came
to the rescue for the Lady Wolves as both scored four points down
the stretch to secure the win for Loranger.
Senior Whitney Anthony led the Lady Wolves with 12 points
followed by Ashley Knippers with 11. For Doyle Kerri McDonald led all scorers
with 16 points. Loranger improved to 5-4, while Doyle dropped to 6-6.
Albany 60, Covington 58 OT
Albany’s Taylor Bankston made a pair of free throw with 13
seconds remaining in regulation to knot the score at 54 and send the game into
overtime. The charity stripe points completed a rally by the Lady Hornets,
who trailed by 11 points at the half and for much of the final two periods.
Bankston would continue her heroics in overtime as she scored all six
Albany points to lead her team to victory.
Chelsea Rogers of Albany led all scorers with 22 points, while
teammate Julie Patterson tossed in 13. The Lady Hornets cashed in big at the
free throw line notching 23-of-33 attempts. For Covington, Dee Dee Burns was
