			 The 
			Tornados put together a nice combination of inside and outside 
			offense, and a stifling box and one for the win 56 – 24.  
			 
			The Lady Toppers were led in scoring by Ainsley Chandler with 7, 
			followed by Skylar Hayes 6, Alyssa Bridge 5, Hailey Moore 3, Emily 
			Wakeman 2, and Breanna Rentmeister 1. Hayes also had 6 rebounds on 
			the night. 
			 
			December 30th – The Lady Toppers found themselves in a third 
			place battle Wednesday night against the Roxanna Shells.  
			 
			The Shells only had three field goals on the night but kept the game 
			close from the line by shooting 41 free throws.  
			 
			With only a 5 point lead at half time, the Lady Toppers were 
			scratching their heads and trying to find a way to get things 
			rolling. The Toppers never did catch fire but played steady enough 
			to pull out the third place victory, 48 – 38.
