The Logan County Lady Cougars broke their losing streak in a big way Tuesday, beating the Lady Patriots 62-48 at Allen County-Scottsville.

Costello added 2 steals and a blocked shot. Epley hit 3 of 6 three-pointers with Gracie Borders and Carrie Gloyd each hit their only three-point attempts, and Sierra Seiber went 1 for 2 from long range.
Logan shot well from two-point range, going 20 of 34. Epley, Costello, McKinnis, Kaelyn Perdue and both of the Borders girls hit 50 percent or better from close range.
