Salina Central 58  Abilene Cowgirls 30

SALINA: Salina Central shutout Abilene in the second quarter and turned a close game into a run-away victory for the Lady Mustangs.  Salina Central led 15-12 at the end of the opening quarter but used a 15-0 second quarter to take a 30-12 lead at halftime.  The Lady Mustangs got up by as many as 30 points in the final quarter and cruised to the 18 point win.

Salina Central improved to 6-5 with the win and had three players in double-figures Tahlia Morris 14, Tessa Snyder 13 and Grace Ostmyer 11. Morris was an All-S.I.T. selection with her outstanding play.  Abilene fell to 2-8 with the loss but the Cowgirls walked away from the tournament with their second victory of the season.  Just a little over a week ago Abilene was in the middle of a 35 game losing streak.  The Cowgirls were led by Tessa Herrman, who finished with 11 points.  She totaled 39 points in the tournament.
