In a game broadcast live on Baynet Radio last night, the Thomas Stone Cougars came to the Birdcage and took a hard fought game from the Lady Raiders of Leonardtown 38-35. It was a see-saw, physical game as LHS took a 9-8 lead to end the first quarter, and the score was tied at 15 to end the first half and again at 26 to end the third quarter.
Coach Eubanks made the right player combinations in the fourth quarter as Stone took the biggest lead for either team (5 points) with about 3 minutes left in the game.
The Lady Raiders got to within 3 with 8.9 seconds remaining but were unable to keep possession as the time ran out. The Lady Cougars got 29 of their 36 points from two players, TaNarnia Chisley (14 points) and Kayia Elliott (15 points).
The Raiders were led by Kate Finkleston and Sara Overs with 7 points each. Guard Dani Mclaughlin added 6 points.
