North Union got a taste of its own medicine on Wednesday during a Central District Division V district semifinal game against a visiting Amanda- Clearcreek squad.

For most of the regular season, the second-seeded Lady Cats clamped down on their opponents with a strong defense, giving up an average of just over 40 points per game.

They then would turn that defensive pressure into points at the offensive end at a 55-pointper- game clip.

It was the least amount of points scored in a game by the Lady Cats all year.
