Tigers up eight at halftime but in foul trouble

STATE 4A BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

One thing a fan never wants to hear in the first half: "That's her third foul."

Lewis and Clark fans heard it twice in this one, and the announcer was talking about the Tigers two disruptive guards: Ula Taula and Brittany Kennedy.

All of the fouls were legitimate and deserved, but there was one illegitimate travel call on Redmon that turned into three points for Kentwood.

Redmon was rebounding a miss when Jessica Rodgers grabbed her arms from behind. The tangle caused the ball to jar loose and Redmon came down with it. A travel was called and the ball given to Kentwood.

Vandersloot hit a 3 on the ensuing possession and killed some LC momentum.

It's call like that which hurt the game. Still, the Tigers led 29-21 at the half. But it should have been 29-18.
