Ruston High (15-7) got a road win at Northwood High in Lena, La., Wednesday by a final score of 47-31 in the last non-district game of the 2023-24 season.
“We played hard and scrappy for four quarters,” Ruston head coach Meredith Graf said. “I really liked our energy tonight. It was a good game leading up to the start of district play on Friday at Pineville.”
The Lady Bearcats took a 24-12 lead into the halftime locker room thanks in large part to contributions from multiple players scoring-wise.
Senior guard Jaliyah McWain led all scorers with 10 points for Ruston, while freshman Angelica Green added 9.
Ruston will travel to Pineville to open District 2-5A play on Friday, Jan. 12, at 5:30 p.m.
