The varsity match was one of the closest and most audience-en - gaging games this season. The first quarter ended with the Scot - ties ahead by six, though that somewhat comfortable beginning lead was short lived. During the second quarter, that elusive lead was exchanged many times. Come halftime both teams stood tied at 27-27. The third quarter continued the teeter-totter changing of the lead on the scoreboard. The Lady Scot - ties fought throughout to the end of the quarter, but were down by one field goal at the quarter’s end. The final quarter saw Philip re - take the lead, then have to retake it again, and yet again. At the 5:43 mark the Scotties were ahead 41- 38. At 3:17 they were down 41-42. When Philip reached 43 points, its weary offense faltered, while Jones County’s offense got in a few more successful shots before the final buzzer.
