Lily Starkel was the team leader in rebounds with five. Thanks to the lopsided score, every player on the bench got into the game.

On Feb. 2, the team traveled to Wellpinit and overcame the Redskins by a score of 54 to 49. Neilsen scored 26 points and was again named player of the game. Hayden Schuh added another 14 points.

Laela Hardung had 10 rebounds to lead the team and also contributed two blocked shots to the defensive effort.

The Tiger girls did not have a game on Feb. 3 against ACH, because the Warrior girls had to cancel. On Saturday, Feb. 5, Oakesdale also had to cancel the girls' game because they did not have enough eligible players.

The next game for the Tiger girls will be Friday, Feb. 11 at home in Odessa, when they face the winner of the Feb. 9 Northport/Valley Christian game.
