The Carroll Tigers started off trailing to the Carlisle Wildcats in Tuesday’s Raccoon River Conference game but were able to rally from the second quarter on to win.

Carroll was able to cut the four-point lead down to two with a bucket late in the quarter to only be down 11-9 going into the second quarter. The Tigers saw much better success in the second quarter as they started by tying the Wildcats at 13 points and took over from there. Carlisle was close to tying the game again when they cut down the 16-13 Tiger lead to 16-15 but weren’t quite able to do so. The Tigers closed out the quarter going 5-4 in points to hold on to their two-point 21-19 lead heading into halftime. Camryn Schable led the team with seven first half points, aided by Josie Ayala with six points.

The Wildcats were within two points of tying the game three times in the third quarter, at 21-19, 23-21, and 25-23, but couldn’t find a way to tie it up. Carroll closed out the third by leading by four points at 30-26 and needed a solid fourth quarter to stay ahead. The Tigers defense stepped up in big ways in the fourth quarter, keeping Carlisle to a game low in points scoring a game high. After getting up 35-30, the Tigers went on a scoring run that lasted most of the fourth quarter, going 8-2 and eventually taking home the 43-32 win at home. Hannah Jorgensen led the Tigers in the second half seven points.
The Tigers will improve to 9-10 overall on the season and 4-10 in the Raccoon River Conference. They will continue the regular season as they take on ADM on Friday, February 11th.
