Snow Canyon came across the county last Thursday and Friday and enjoyed the hospitality provided by the Tigers. They also left with a pair of crucial Region 9 victories at the expense of Hurricane,which could provide costly for state playoff implications.It seemed for a moment on Thursday that the Lady Tigers could shift into cruise control and Snow Canyon would roll over and die. Then the transmission went out on Coach Clair Woodbury's team. Hurricane couldn't find the right gear in the second quarter as the Warriors exploded for 21 points in that period alone,enroute to a 56-49 victory,ending the Tigers unblemished Region 9 mark. The game resembled a rugby match from the opening tip. Hurricane was whistled with 28 fouls while SC added 26. Three Hurricane players fouled out of the game,Snow Canyon one player. To the Warriors credit,they came in poised,didn't fold up the tent when they were down 10-5 in the first period and took advantage of the Tigers foul issues,pounding the ball inside to post players Liz McArthur and Angela Walter,who combined for 36 points. Two major factors in the contest for the Lady Tigers were free throw shooting and foul trouble. Hurricane struggled mightily from the charity stripe,hitting just 14 of 33 attempts,with just one player hitting over 50 percent from the line. Hurricane's backcourt players,Chelsey Stout,Rachelle Ballard and Lisa Eves each fouled out of the contest. Brandi Barrett led all Hurricane scorers with 17 points and Wilson added 11.
