The Ovid-Elsie Lady Marauders remained unbeaten in the MMAC as they downed Durand Tuesday night 54-31.  Ovid-Elsie improved to 4-2 (3-0 MMAC) while Durand dropped to 4-4 (1-3 MMAC).

Ava Bates recorded a double-double with 20 points and 10 rebounds while notching 3 blocked shots and 3 assists.  Hailee Campbell chipped in with 9 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists while Evalyn Cole added 8 points, 4 rebounds and 5 steals.  Braeden Tokar (5 rebounds) and Ellyanna Carman (6 rebounds) each added 5 points while Katie Lorio knocked down a three-pointer and Kiah Longoria and Aubrey Kurka each added a bucket.

"We've been a little banged up and sick for the past week," said Head Coach Ryan Cunningham.  "We weren't even able to practice for a week. So to come out with this kind of energy and intensity, especially on the defensive side, was thoroughly impressive.  I'm super proud of these kids and you have to give Loynes, Longoria and Cole a ton of credit for the job they did on their guards."

Ovid-Elsie took a commanding 15-4 lead after the first stanza and then followed it up with a 13-5 effort in the second quarter to lead 28-9 at half.  The Railroaders were able to keep it within two in each of the final two quarters, 16-14 and 10-8 respectively, but Ovid-Elsie would lead by as many as 25 points.

The Lady Marauders out rebounded Durand 38-29 and collected 14 steals on 25 Railroader turnovers.  Ovid-Elsie also handed out 15 assists on 21 made baskets.

Ovid-Elsie will have a quick turn around as they get ready for another MMAC matchup against Chesaning Thursday night at 5:30 p.m.  This game is a make up game from last week and will be a varsity girls game only.
