First Quarter
The Lady Spartans came out in a fury & led 10-0 before Oasis scored their first points. The 1Q couldn't end fast enough for The Lady Lions.
Second Quarter
Oasis faired much better as they calmed their nerves & focused on the game. They managed to keep pace with Discovery and ended up tying the 2Q 6-6, leading to a score of 25-10 at the half. Despite how bad Oasis played at this point, they only trailed by 15. Neither team was playing great ball in reality.
Third Quarter
After halftime, both teams seem to digress although Oasis was happy with the result as they only lost the quarter 3-2.
Fourth Quarter
The 4Q mirrored the first as the Lady Lions' fatigue caught up with them. Beka Ayers scored their only bucket on a beautiful move at the free throw line which led to a Eurostep around defenders in the lane and a floater off the backboard, good for two points.
