Lady Pioneers Knock Off Mott
Exact revenge for early season loss
Flint, MI – The women of Delta traveled to Flint on Wednesday night to take on the Mott Community College Bears in a MCCAA Eastern Conference basketball battle that saw Delta squeak out a seven point victory, 52-45. The win avenged an earlier loss to Mott back on January 20th when the Bears escaped with a three point victory.
"Our bench stepped up on both defense and rebounding," said Miller. "when we got in some foul trouble different girls took care of the ball made sure the game never got out of hand."
The win ups the Pioneer record to 16-10 overall on the year and 9-5 in the conference, good enough for fourth place. But they still have their work cut out for them if they want to host a first-round regional game as the Ocelots of Scholcraft visit Delta on Saturday.
"We have to do our jobs and take care of home court. Seeing that we host the regional tournament we want to play at home first round and the first step to that is finishing the next two games strong!"
