Lady Cards win in a thriller of a game in two OT's. Way to go girls.:ylsuper:

HALFTIME-OHIO CO. 31, CLARK CO. 28: Ohio County holds a slim 31-28 lead at the half behind Arielle Keown’s eight points. The Cardinals are being paced by Brittany Black’s 13 points. She averaged just 10.4 points a game coming into the tournament.

Brittani Gay just scooped up her own missed free throw and gave the Cardinals a 24-23 lead with 1:31 to play until the half.

Ohio County is up 13-12 after one quarter.

Clark finds way back

Back in January, Clark County didn't have the look of a team that would end the program's 15-year Sweet Sixteen drought.

The Lady Cardinals were laboring along with a 6-9 record. Then, out of nowhere, something clicked.

Clark County won 12 of its final 13 games, including a 48-35 win over five-time defending 10th Region champion Montgomery County, to earn its first trip to the state tournament since 1995.

Defense became Clark County's calling card. The Lady Cards have allowed their opponents to reach double figures in a quarter just twice in the post-season.

That defensive intensity is sparked by 5-foot-7 junior guard Preshia Rogers, who averages nearly three steals a game.

"She handles the point for us, and she tends not to be real vocal," said Clark County Coach Scott True. "But when we need something, that's where we're looking."

OHIO COUNTY (24-7) – Keown 16, Griffin 14, Wood 16, Ruby 10, Millsaps 7.

 

CLARK (19-10) - P. Rogers 8, Black 22, J. Rogers 10, Williams 12, Gay 9, Kindred 2, Jones 4.

 

 

Making its first appearance in the state tournament since 1995, Clark prolonged its visit with a 67-63 triumph over Ohio County in double overtime. It marked the first double overtime encounter in the state tourney since Sacred Heart defeated Muhlenberg North in 2002.
