• Groton's undefeated record remains untarnished as the Lady Tigers defeated Redfield-Doland, 44-33.
• "This was our first real test of the team," said Coach Shaun Wanner. "We led the whole game, but Redfield-Doland had a couple of runs to cut the lead. Last year, we would have lost those types of games. This year, we held the lead. I have to complement our bench players--they did a good job."
