BAKER, La. — After getting off a slow start and then trailing by nine points at halftime, Trinity Episcopal became a completely different team in the second half as the Lady Saints rallied to defeat the Central Private School Lady Rebels 35-30 Tuesday night.

It was about as tough of a start as Trinity Episcopal could have as the Lady Saints ended up with just three points at the end of the first quarter and trailed by eight points. Even though the Lady Saints played better in the second quarter, they were down 23-14 at the half.

But just as it appeared that the homestanding Lady Rebels had control of the ball game, the Lady Saints went to a different and more aggressive defense in the third quarter and the Lady Rebels were anything but in control. Trinity wound up outscoring Central Private 12-2 in the game-changing third quarter to take a 26-25 lead.

The fourth quarter didn’t provide much scoring from either team, Trinity managed to outscore Central Private 9-5 to put a cap on an improbable comeback.

Marty Lewis led the Lady Saints in scoring with a game-high 12 points and Tali Beard finished with eight points. Sam Romeo had 11 points and Lauren West added 10 points to lead the Lady Rebels.

Trinity Episcopal (2-3) next plays at Cathedral at 3 p.m. Saturday.
