Schuh also led the team in rebounds with nine.

After bouts of illness last week, the girls looked like they were not back in form. This game was a makeup game that was originally scheduled for the previous week. The Tigers were set to face WCK again Saturday, Jan. 22, but first faced Almira-Coulee-Hartline at home in Odessa on Friday, where they squeaked out a one-point victory.

Hayden Schuh led the Tigers with 14 points, followed closely by Ashlyn Neilsen with 13.

Laela Hardung led the rebounding with 14 and was named the Odessa player of the game. Neilsen blocked two shots during the game.

On Saturday, Jan. 22, the team once again faced WCK, this time at home. Despite a relatively slow start in the first quarter, the Tigers were in much better form on this night, especially Neilsen, who ended the game with a whopping 33 points.

Hardung again led the team in rebounds with 10, and Schuh had eight. Neilsen stole the ball six times, most of which became layups in the Tiger's basket.

The Tiger girls are now 9-2 for the season and 6-1 in league play.
