Lady Hornets battle, still bow to No. 10 Kirksville

Fulton head coach TJ Quick sees the change in her team.

Fulton was blown out at Kirksville 71-31 on Dec. 14. The Lady Hornets entered that game with just a single win in their first six games.

Tuesday night, Fulton - having won four straight and seven of its last nine - took the court at Roger D. Davis Gymnasium against that same Kirksville squad, now ranked No. 10 in Class 4.

The Lady Hornets have progressed, sure. But the end result was the same. Fulton withered away in the second half, dropping the North Central Missouri Conference contest to the Lady Tigers 69-49.
