come in and be overpowered, as last year's Vikings squad that went 1-29 did in losing by 41.The home

enough for the Lady Leopards to pull off an upset or for the Leopards to suffer a surprise defeat.The TC

overtime, but Grayson dominated the extra session to earn a 78-72 victory in the first half of the Northern
