The Tigers agreed they didn’t play their best basketball Friday evening, but still found a way to secure a road win, defeating the Rockets 53–40. The highlight was the offensive firepower with three players scoring in double figures: Laila Huston, Emma Flory, and Isabella Warner. On the defensive end, Aubrey Edwards did the heavy lifting and stood out with her effort. Belton will travel to China Spring on Tuesday for its final preseason game in search of its 13th win.
