The Teague Lady Lions basketball team hosted Mexia for a contest on Monday, Feb. 3. The game was originally for Friday, Jan. 31, but was postponed to Monday evening.

It turned out that Mexia played from behind the entire game and wound up on the short end of a 48-38 final score. The Lady Lions got off to a fast start in the opening period with a 10-2 run. However, a 7-0 spurt from Mexia that was capped off by a Haylee Fitch layup got the score to 10-9 in favor of Teague.

At the end of the first quarter, Teague held a 12-9 lead. Teague forward Bethanah Owens proved to be a difficult matchup for Mexia as she accounted for seven points in the first period.
