After game delay caused by problems with the gym, the game was finally started around 7pm in a different location. In the first half, Lexington Lightning was dominating the game and even leading by as much as 10 points. Erica Coleman (5'10''-F, college: Morehead St.) and Juliane Hoehne (6'3''-F/C-83, college: IPFW) were leading the team in scoring in the first half. In the second half, simple turnovers and bad defense led the Cleveland Crush back in the game and they were even able to come within one point during the 3rd and 4th quarter. The last minutes of the game, Lexington Lightning had a 4 point lead and almost gave the game away by turning the ball over in the back court because of the 10second rule, which gave Cleveland the chance to even win the game with a three pointer or at least tie it with a two pointer. However, Cleveland missed the last shot and Lexington Lightning won the game 61-59. All players were able to score, but the Lightning were led Coleman 16 and Tracy Harbut (6'0''-G/F-85, college: Syracuse) 12, who were able to score in double digits. Next weekend, the Lightning will travel to Columbus to take on versus the Columbus Hidden Gems.
