The Sam Houston Lady Broncos never led in a 55-43 loss to the North Vermilion Lady Patriots on Monday in Moss Bluff.

"They hit their free throws," said Sam Houston head coach Korey Arnold. "They did a good job on the offensive glass and we didn't. They hit their lay-ups and they made their free throws. I thought that that was the difference in the game.”
Kim Kennedy led all scorers with 22 points for Sam Houston and Haley Carrier added 7 points.
Mimi Bridges scored a team-high 18 points for North Vermilion.
