The Wellsboro Varsity Girls Basketball gave up 20 first quarter and 25 third quarter points as the Lady Tigers defeated the Lady Hornets, 54-36.
Despite scoring first in the second half, the Lady Hornets’ shooting went cold as they missed shot after shot, giving Mansfield numerous scoring opportunities. Mansfield would capitalize and in turn catch fire from behind the three-point line to put the game out of reach.
With the loss, the Lady Hornets fall to 6-5 (2-2 NTL Division 1). The team will be back in action on Thursday, January 15 as they host Williamson.
