HUMBOLDT — Humboldt High’s girls fell behind early, and never could catch back up Tuesday in a 41-33 loss to Neodesha.
The loss snapped a season-high five-game winning streak for the Lady Cubs, who were out to avenge a 22-point defeat at Neodesha in mid-December.
This time around, the Bluestreaks jumped out to a 13-9 lead after one quarter and a 23-14 halftime advantage.
Humboldt stayed at arm’s length the rest of the way.
Shelby Shaughnessy scored nine points and McKenna Jones had seven for Humboldt (11-6),
Allison Stover (12 points) and Prayer Roebuck (11) paced Neodesha.
