Lady Tiger precision leads to 50-33 win over Patriots

The Sunshine Lady Tigers entered the house of a one-loss Linden Lady Patriots team and walked out with a 50-33 win.

Despite the score, the precision play of the Tigers didn&8217;t lead to an early break down of the Patriot group, whose size dominance has helped them dominate the paint this season. Going into the fourth period, the Patriots were only down by six, but the Tigers&8217; disciplined play finally took its toll &8212; putting up 15 points to Linden&8217;s four in the final quarter.

Leading scorers for the Tigers were Shatontaye Myers with 20, JohnQuesha Childs with 13 and LaCresha Rainer with 12. Kristi Lloyd led Linden with 15 points.
