CHEROKEE — The second time was most definitely not the charm for Marmaton Valley High’s girls.
The Wildcats took on St. Paul High’s Indians for the second time in a week.
After defeating Marmaton Valley 55-27 six days earlier, St. Paul erased any suspense in Monday night’s contest by racing to a 25-2 lead.
The 60-15 Indian victory brings a sour note for the Wildcats in the opening round of the Southeast Lancer Classic.
Marmaton Valley (4-5 overall) wraps up tournament pool play at 8:30 p.m. Thursday against Columbus.
Results of the first two rounds will determine matchups in Friday’s final rounds.
“We just didn’t run our offense or defense the way we should have,” Wildcat coach Kent Houk said. “That sums it up right there.”
