Facing Regis for the second time this season, the Lady Macks (12-8, 9-4 Western Cloverbelt Conference) came out a little flat and immediately fell into a big hole against the motivated Ramblers (1-12, 2-17 WCC), who led 20-3 at one point in the first half.
McDonell made a late surge to close the gap, then both teams battled gamely after the break until the Lady Macks pulled away in the final minutes.
