For an opening season game Tuesday (November 12), the Saltillo Lady Lions decided to climb the highest mountain. They took on Martin’s Mill, the #1 ranked team in Class 2A and State Champions for the past two seasons and the game was at Martin’s Mill. The result was a Martin’s Mill win over Salltillo, 53-18. Martin’s Mill went up 19-2 after one quarter and never looked back. For the Lady Lions, Allie Lane had 6 points, Chandler Bain and Jocelyn Ochoa had 4 points apiece and Anna Reeder and Maddy Smith had 2 points each. Lady Lions Coach Bill Giles said his team was a little overwhelmed but he added it was their first game and they would learn from this. The Lady Lions play next in the Rivercrest Shootout on Saturday.
