Against the visiting Lady Wardens this past Thursday, the host Scarlets played Deer Lodge within two possessions during the first frame, nibbling at the deficit during the second to remain in the hunt at intermission. But thereafter, the Wardens went on lockdown and caged Scarlet aspirations of pulling off a rally.

This past weekend at the Snake Pit in Anaconda, the Scarlet offense was constricted from getting into rhythym. Cheyenne Pablo and Jerny Crawford combined for 14 points, but needed more to offset the pair of Lady Copperheads who notched double figures.

Arlee travels to the Bitterroot against Florence on Friday, then host Charlo on Saturday in a cross classification clash.
