Lady Indians snap 5-game losing streak, edge out Elbert

The Lady Indians earned a 42-39 home win Thursday against Elbert County to snap a 5-game losing skid.

TFS overcame a significant deficit, trailing 20-8 after the first. A big second quarter got Tallulah within 25-20 at the half. In each of the last three quarters, the TFS defense held Elbert to fewer than 10 points. 

Breelyn Wood had a phenomenal game with 15 points and a career-high 22 rebounds.

Molly Mitchell and Haygen James both had six points. Millie Holcomb had five points and Adrijana Albijanic had two.

The girls are now 7-10 overall and 1-3 with their first region win.
