Mimi Williams led the NDN Gunners with 15 points in another solid team win.
In the second game of action the Lemon Drops held on to win their second game of the season in dramatic fashion after nearly blowing a double digit lead. Melissa Pawlowski did a great job breaking down the full-court press and working the ball around to her teammates. Ashley Kimble led the Lemon Drops with 13 points in the win. Healthy Buffalo made a spirited comeback attempt, led behind the offensive attack of team newcomer Aaliyah Dunbar (16 points). But it was too little, too late as the Lemon Drops would advance to 2-1 and Healthy Buffalo would fall to 1-2.
In the final game of the night the Geriatric Lady Bears took on TBD. It was the league debut for TBD and they made a statement, handily beating a solid Geriatric Lady Bears team. Tanisha Travis (19 points) and Marybeth Nugent (15 points) did most of the damage offensively.
