Lady Cyclones Keep It Rolling
Although not the prettiest of games, the Lady Cyclones managed to defeat the County Hornets 64-42 last night, Tuesday January 24th. This now puts the number four ranked Cyclones at 14-2 with their only losses coming from the two top ranked teams in the state, Pueblo South and Air Academy.
