More first round girls action from the First Region Tournament took place last night, this matchup between the Paducah Tilghman Lady Blue Tornado and Carlisle County Lady Comets. A dominant second quarter from Tilghman set the tone for the remainder of the match, leading them to the 65-57 victory. This marks the first time since the 2016 Region Tournament the Lady Blue Tornado have advanced to the second round.
“I saw teamwork. I saw desire. I saw everything we’ve been chasing all year long,” Paducah Tilghman head coach Stephani Gray said following the win. “We didn’t have one that just ran away with the game, they all played a part. We came to play and we came to win.”
