Early three point shooting from senior Emma White and strong post play by freshman Cariann Williams led the Lady Cats to their first district win of the season on the road last night against the Grayson County Lady Cougars.

White, who was a perfect 4-4 from behind the arc, helped Edmonson County take back the momentum after allowing the Lady Cougars to jump out to a 7-0 start. She finished with 13 points and 2 rebounds.

Cariann Williams goes for 2 of her 14 points against Grayson County.

Williams, a 6'2" center, led the Lady Cats in scoring with 14 points and added 10 rebounds and 6 blocked shots.

The Lady Cats trailed 13-7 after the first quarter, but they went on a 9-0 run in the second quarter, capped off by White, who nailed a three-pointer from the right side that gave the Lady Cats their first lead of the game at 18-15. Edmonson County never trailed again.

A strong 10-0 run to start the third quarter snuffed out any hopes for a Grayson County comeback and the Lady Cats held on for the district win.
