LANDIS — South Rowan’s girls had every chance to win on Wednesday against Mount Pleasant, but the Tigers took a 36-33 non-conference victory.

South (3-4) rallied in the third quarter and finally took the lead at 24-23 when Kynlee Dextraze scored inside. The Tigers went back ahead 25-24 at the end of the quarter.
