Clay County turned a tight game into a runaway in the second half, pulling away for a 63-38 win over Jackson County on Tuesday \u2014 the victory marked the first time Clay County has swept Jackson County in the regular season since the 2017-2018 season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSlow start coming out but the girls responded in a big way in the second quarter,\u201d Clay County coach Gemma Parks said. \u201cIt\u2019s always good to get a district game, especially when our bench steps up. Still got a couple dealing with injuries but they battled through. Gotta be ready for a tough road game tomorrow at Leslie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lady Tigers and Lady Generals were locked in early, with Jackson County holding a slim 16-14 edge after the first quarter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clay County answered in the second period, outscoring Jackson 17-8 to take a 31-24 lead into halftime, then put the game away with a dominant second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clay County\u2019s defense set the tone after the break, limiting Jackson County to just 14 points over the final two quarters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lady Tigers used a 22-point fourth quarter to stretch the margin and seal the victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harper Rice led the way for Clay County with 15 points, Anna Samples added 13 points, and Lauryn Sizemore scored 12. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
