Lady Falcons Beat Winters, go 2-1 on the Season


After pulling out a thriller their first game of the season 34-33 over Robert Lee, and falling 40-26 to Blanket over the weekend, the Lady Falcons looked for consistent play and another win against Winters. That's just what they got, as they defrosted the Lady Blizzards 39-26. Haley Humble led the way for Veribest, pouring in 17 points during the contest. In a closely-contested match during the first half, the Lady Falcons used good defense and strong rebounding to pull away in the third quarter. Angela Hood led the team with 12 rebounds, eight of them defensive, and Katie Lankford provided steady play throughout the match. Veribest outscored Winters 14-2 in the pivotal third quarter. Veribest hopes to continue their winning ways as they play Loraine in the first round of the Veribest Tournament Thursday afternoon.
