The Lady Titans came into the game winners of their last 4 games overall and 6 in a row in conference. On the other side, the Lady Wildcats winners of their last 3 games; all of which were conference wins. Jada Williams and Ja’cole Johnson and the Lady Wildcats would look to gain some ground on the first-place Lady Titans, who brought their balanced attack of Tasia Johnson, Brooke Ellis, Charli Ritchey, Marissa Ritchey, and Morgan Pietig.
The first quarter started off a slower pace with both teams playing solid defense. The Lady Titans would hold an early 9 – 4 lead after one-quarter of play. The Lady Wildcats would start to convert their defensive stops into points and tie things up at 12 all.
But the Lady Titans would start to warm things up from the outside and the Lady Wildcats would struggle a bit. Sharpshooter Audrey Parson would hit her first 3 to give the lady Titans a 10 point lead and then with seconds left to play before half, she would hit her second in a row from the corner to push the lead out to 13 at the half.
The second half was more of what happened in the second quarter for both teams. the Lady Wildcats continued to struggle to make shots and the Lady Titans continued their suffocating defense that leads to fast-break opportunities and hot outside shooting. The Lady Titans would get a solid road conference win, 57 – 42
