Fast Start Sets the Tone Stringtown wasted no time seizing control against Fort Cobb-Broxton. The Lady Tigers opened the game on a 9-0 run as Mylee Viss, Madelyn Viss and Annie Thompson all hit a three-pointer. The fast start was due to a great scouting report by Dudley as he was focused on executing a deliberate offensive plan designed to attack the zone defense to start the game.
