The Lady Knights played a good tough first half which saw them down 7-6. The second half was a different story as they struggled to move the ball on offense and defensive pressure was not there in the 2nd half. The Lady Knights are now 3-2 on the season and get back into action tomorrow night at the Castle vs Oak Hill.
