Lady Tigers Battle Hard in Rivalry Matchup

ARKADELPHIA, Ark. – Three Lady Tigers score in double digits as Ouachita drops the first meeting of the year with Henderson State. 
 
Alivia Huell led the Tigers in the Battle of the Ravine with 14 points and eight rebounds, four offensive. Sophomore Eden Crow put in a great game also accounting for 13 points and seven rebounds. Madison Brittain dropped 11 points and added two huge blocks in the matchup.
 
The game started slowly for the Lady Tigers as HSU hit three three pointers to take a 9-0 lead. Huell broke the run with a jumper to give Ouachita their first points. A 4-0 run started by Eden Crow would cut the lead to 14-10 before Henderson hit a buzzer beater to go up by six at the end of the first.
 
The second quarter began with the Reddies making every shot they took despite hard defensive play by the Tigers. The Tigers allowed Henderson to get a lead up to 21 before showing how determined of a team they are. The rest of the half the Tigers went on a 12-5 run capped off by a Madison Brittain jumper with 19 seconds left in the half. 
 
The Lady Tigers continued the fight in the third quarter and cut the lead to nine after back to back buckets by Maija Gertsone and Eden Crow. The closest they would get in the quarter after that would be 10 which they achieved on a Madison Brittain jumper with 3:10 left.
 
The fourth quarter saw some bench players getting more time. Taylor Wells came into the game and immediately drained a corner three. Rachel Wilson followed in the action by knocking down a three of her own. Jessi Bennett gave the Tigers some spark playing hard defense against the starters that remained on the court for the Reddies.
