Lady Mavs Force OT With #6 Jim Ned

4th Quarter Comeback Falls Short in OT

By Stephen Forester

 

The #6 Jim Ned Lady Indians visited the Marshall Gym last Tuesday to face off against the Eastland Lady Mavericks. The home team was down by 10 to start the 4th quarter, 29-19. They were down 13 at one point and came back in dramatic fashion to tie the game at the final buzzer forcing OT. The Lady Mavs had their chances to win in overtime but just couldn’t find a way to get it done. Eastland lost to Jim Ned by 3, 44- 41. Coach Michael Huxen commented about the close game, “I am very proud of the girls and the way we fought against a good Jim Ned team that is very well coached.”
