The Lady Generals had their struggles just before the holiday break but the team has started to get better each game out after new years.

The Generals took a 12-point halftime lead over Miles City and looked like they would blow the Pioneers out Saturday. They took a 19-point lead early in the second half but Miles City dug in and caught the Generals and even took the lead twice before the Generals took the lead back with 2 minutes to play. It was a two point game but the Generals hit a bunch a free throws in the last minute to win by 11 96-85.
