But after a 1-8 start the Lady Cats have now posted two wins in a row.
The latest was Monday night’s 70-39 victory at home over winless Lincoln County at Logan High School’s Willie Akers Arena.

Rachelle Toppings and Summer Collins tallied six each, while Emily Vinson and Kelsey Kirk had four each. Jasmine Workman had two, while Madi Trent, Hannah Kolovich and Arianna Jeffery all had one point.

The Lady Cats jumped out to a 17-9 first quarter lead over Lincoln County in last night’s game and never looked back.
Cline keyed Logan’s first quarter by netting three 3-pointers. The first trey gave Logan a 7-2 lead on the Lady Panthers.
Cline’s third 3 swelled the lead to 15-5. Then it was Gore’s baseline move and score which put the Lady Cats ahead 17-5. Lincoln County then scored the last two buckets to pull to within nine after one quarter.
In the second, Logan turned it on and pretty much put the game out of reach.
The Lady Cats went on a 13-5 run to begin the stanza, taking a 30-14 lead on Lincoln County. Gore finished off the run with an old fashioned three-point play at the 4:59 mark. Gore had fed Kelsey Kirk on a bucket in the paint at the 5:07 mark to make it 27-14.
Logan’s lead got bigger as Vinson sank a 12-foot pull-up shot to push the lead to 33-15.
Norman then scored two straight hoops to up the margin to 38-15 with 1:26 left.

The Lady Cats are scheduled to return to action on Saturday at home against Cabell Midland. Tip off is slated for 3 p.m.
Then next week, Logan hosts Tolsia on Jan. 16 and Winfield on Jan. 19 before having a rematch with Lincoln County on Jan. 23 at Hamlin.
