Friday action on MOARK Sports Dot Com included a win for a team against an opponent that beat them six days ago.

Last Saturday, the Forsyth Lady Panthers got an overtime win over Sparta in their Lady Trojan Tournament. In Friday's regular season game in Forsyth, the Lady Trojans jumped out to an early lead and never let the Lady Panthers fight their way back, rolling to a 64-43 win. The Lady Trojans held Forsyth to 11 first half points and though the Lady Panthers got to within 15 in the second half, Sparta always had an answer.

Megan Brown led three Lady Trojans in double figures with 18 points while Emmy Blevins paced the Lady Panthers with 17.

In other MOARK Games Friday, a split for the Harrison teams at Greenwood. The Lady Goblins lost their game to the team that recently won a division of the Pink and White Lady Classic in Springfield 89-32 while the Goblins earned the varsity split holding off the Bulldogs 61-54.
