Lady Tigers start new year with win

The Encampment Lady Tigers started the new year off with a win against the Laramie Sophomores 55-35.

It was a typical coming out of break game, Encampment’s head coach Amy Clay said. At half time, the Tigers were up 28-21. By the third quarter, they came in swinging, Clay said. They outscored the Plainsmen 17-5.

Clay said it is difficult to prepare playing against the Laramie Sophomores, because the team literally changes from year to year.

The Lady Tigers came prepared to play a zone defense and ended up playing a man defense.
