In a quarter that seemed to produce nearly no misses for White County, it put up 23 points to go into the half with a 37-27 lead.

Both teams traded buckets throughout part of the third, but White County still outscored Dawson 16-7 to enter the fourth up 53-34. The Lady Warriors again scored more than the Lady Tigers, 14-11, in the final quarter of play.
