The No. 4-ranked Lady Card basketball team overcame a lackluster first-half performance Wednesday night at Cardinal Gym on their way to an 83-61 win against Paris.
The win upped the Lady Cards to 13-2 on the season and kept them in first place in Region XIV Conference at 10-2.
The Lady Cards led 34-29 at the half, but were down 39-36 with 7:36 to go in the third quarter. After that, it was all Lady Cards.
TVCC was led by Taiyanna Jackson with 25 points and Taylor Hutchins with 19.
Also scoring for the Lady Cardinals were Mailyn Wilkerson-15 (2 3-ptrs), Mahoganie Williams-10, Kaye Clark-9 (1 3-ptr), Noelle Yancy-3, Alexis Brown-2.
Next up is a trip Saturday to Kilgore for a 2 p.m. tipoff. The Lady Cards defeated Kilgore 79-64 earlier this season at Cardinal Gym.
