In a rematch of former District 7-3A foes, Brock’s girls found themselves down in the first half to host Jacksboro Dec. 8 by a many as nine. As most Eagles squad will do, however, the Lady Eagles mounted a comeback in the second half and posted a closer than it looked 36-26 win at Tiger Gym

Jacksboro slipped to 5-4 with the setback while Brock went to 3-4. Tigerette Coach Kyle Wood said he was pleased with the way his squad played overall.

A 17-0 third quarter run brought Jacksboro back from the precipice vs. Class 2A Electra, the visitors taking advantage of a slow start shooting (20 percent in the first half) by the hosts.

Jacksboro was expected to be a faster team than in years past. Just how much faster the Tigerettes will be remains to be seen.

PERRIN – Sometimes it can be one shot in the middle of a game that falls which can turn things around.

BRYSON – Much like the girls game that preceded it, Saint Jo and Bryson boys had a slow first three quarters offensively in combining for 38 points. The fourth quarter nearly equalled the first three quarters as the visiting Panthers broke things open for good and posted a 40-30 win.
