After the half Tri-Valley came back with new energy landing shot after shot and pushing the score ahead at a rate 4 times faster than the Panthers. By the end of the third the score was 45 – 24.
In the final quarter of play the scores were dropping off on both sides of the court but that didn’t stop the Scotties from ending the night with a 25 point advantage over Maysville. The game final was 56 – 31 Tri-Valley, way to go Dawgs!!
