The Wauseon Lady Indians took a slim one-point lead into the fourth quarter and outscored the Delta Lady Panthers 14-11 to come away with a tight 40-36 NWOAL victory in Delta on Thursday night.  Both teams struggled with their shooting in the first half which ended in a 12-12 tie.  The Indians and the Panthers were able to generate a lot more offense in the second half with Wauseon finding a little more firepower than the hosts to grab the four-point win.  Mackenzie Stasa, Johanna Tester and Sophia Rupp each scored nine points to lead the Lady Indians while Grace Munger also scored nine points for the Lady Panthers.
