The Whitehouse Lady Cats would suffer their second district loss of the year Tuesday as they would fall on the road to Nacogdoches, 59-45. The loss puts the Lady Cats at 1-2 in district play headed into the holiday break.

In the JV game, the Lady Cats would be defeated 39-28 while the freshman would come away victorious, 27-18.

After a tough home loss to Henderson to start district play, the Whitehouse Lady Cat varsity bounced back with a solid 63-47 win at home last Friday night over Marshall.

With the win, the Lady Cats evened up their district record at 1-1 as they travel to Nacogdoches Tuesday night to battle with the Lady Dragons.

Kayla Mason and Caroline Perrier would provide the offensive punch against Marshall as the two would combine for 8-16 shooting from behind the arc to pour in 23 and 21 points, respectively.

“We had a slow start, but later we came on strong. When we put together four quarters, we are going to be tough to beat,” stated Coach Willie Hill.
