The Lady Dinos basketball team has been playing well all season. Winners of their last three heading into the contest with Manti on Tuesday night, they were ready to keep that streak going when the Templars came to town. With the help of a huge first quarter they were able to maintain their lead taking the 73-44 win.

Carbon has earned a 10-4 overall record which includes a 5-0 Region 12 mark that has set them squarely in the No. 3 spot in the latest RPI.

The Lady Dinos came out firing in the first quarter scoring 28 points and holding Manti to 13, that would set the tone for the rest of the contest. In the second quarter, Carbon went back to work putting up another 18 in the quarter, pushing the score to 46-24 at the half.

In the third Manti put up 16, and held the Lady Dinos to their lowest point total in the game with 11,  but the 57-40 score was as close as the Templars would get. In the fourth, the Dinos came out and did exactly what they needed to do for the final quarter putting Manti away 73-44.

Madi Orth had another outstanding performance for the Lady Dinos with 23 points, she also grabbed 10 rebounds, seven steals and dished out five assists. Amiah Timothy also had a great night with 20 points, dishing out nine assist, with four rebounds and a pair of steals.
