WISCONSIN RAPIDS – The Stratford girls basketball team did just enough to pull out a big road win in Marawood Conference South Division action Tuesday night at Assumption High School.

The Tigers made just two baskets in the first half, but made 12 of 15 free throws to hang close. In the second half, Macie Schillinger scored seven of her 10 points, including three of Stratford’s seven field goals, to help the Tigers pull out the victory.
Stratford was 10 of 20 at the free throw line in the second half, but held the Royals to just two made field goals and the Royals were only 5 of 9 on free throws in the second half, and 10 of 20 overall, as they came up short.
