Tough End to a Great 2014-15 Season for Lady Tigers

Underdogs…. Underaged…. Undermatched… None of that seemed to matter to Coach
Garry Davison and the Tenaha Lady Tigers last night in Lufkin in the Regional Quarterfinal playoff game vs. Evadale.  In the end, a see-saw battle saw Evadale get the lucky bounce as a corner three point shot nicked the corner of the backboard and then into the hoop to give the Lady Rebels a 41-39 lead with just :34 remaining.  Down by one with  :20 left, the Lady
Tigers got two good looks at the go ahead bucket, but they both rimmed out and a last second attempt from near half court by Kean’ya Davis was no good. In the end, Evadale celebrates a trip to the Regional Tournament by a score of 41-40.  But, for Tenaha, the celebration of an amazing effort as well as a roster of only underclassmen returning means the opportunity to return to the Regional stage is very much a reality.  

Evadale is now 29-4 on the year and will advance to play Hubbard who defeated Lovelady last night.  The Regional Tournament is at Leon High School in Jewett, Texas this year.  On the other half of the bracket, District 22-2A rival Shelbyville (whom Tenaha defeated by nearly thirty points earlier this year) has advanced to take on Regional favorite and Holiday Hoops runner-up LaPoynor.  

The Lady Tigers will enter the off-season with only underclassmen that will return from a 24-10 season that included an undefeated District Championship, an Area playoff win, and tons of hunger to advance even further.
