The Reno Huskies were the 63-38 winner over the Douglas Tigers when they last played one another back in January, but their luck changed this time around. Reno was outmatched by Douglas at home and fell 52-17. The result shouldn't come as a shock considering that's the fewest points Reno has scored all season.
Despite the loss, Reno still got an impressive performance from Natalia Schettler, who scored five points along with 11 rebounds. That's the first time this season that Schettler pulled down eight or more rebounds.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Reno struggled to work together and finished the game with only three assists. That's the fewest assists they've managed all season.
