Lions and Tigers To Play Some Hoops Tonight

Two long time rivals in the Cannon County Lions and Lionettes and the Dekalb County Tigers and Tigerettes meet in Smithville tonight.  The Lionettes are looking to improve to 10-0 and although Dekalb has struggled in the district in years past, this year’s Tigerette squad is dangerous.  The Tigerettes are 0-3 but raised eyebrows December 4th when they traveled to Livingston and only lost by two.  The Lionettes coming off a dismantling of the York Institute Dragonettes will try to extend their district record to a perfect 4 and 0.  The Lions are 2-1 in district play and have won 2 in a row.  After dropping the opening contest, the Tigers have won 10 in a row including close victories against Livingston and Smith County.  Tonight’s games begin with the coaches corner at 5:45 with the tip-off at 6:00 at Dekalb County High School.  You can hear the action on AM-1540/FM 96.7 WBRY and streaming live on wbry.com
