  • Lady Tigers swipe road win at No. 12 Cumberlands in OT

    For the past four seasons, the University of the Cumberlands has had the Lady Tigers’ number.

    Over that span, Campbellsville is 1-9 against the team from Williamsburg and hasn’t beaten the Lady Patriots on their home floor since the MSC Championship of 2004.

    But the numbers changed for CU Thursday night as the Lady Tigers found a number — a small one — and turned back Cumberlands in overtime 68-65 in the NAIA Game of the Week. The win gives the Lady Tigers a one-game lead in the MSC standings.
