Lady Rebels come out on top in tight battle with Lehman

Key free throws late in the game pushed the Hays Rebels to a 31-27 defensive brawl over the rival Lehman Lobos Friday at the Den.

Hays enacted payback on the Lobos, who defeated the Rebels 49-27 in their first matchup earlier this season.

“We let them have 49 last time,” Preuss said. “Defense wins games and we concentrated on that and came up with defenses for them.”
