CUSHING - The Cushing Lady Tigers opened their 2023-24 basketball season with a new coach, a new outlook and a new strategy and if their performance against the Cleveland Lady Tigers is any indication, they are looking forward to a successful season.
Cushing did not win the game against Cleveland, but after a slow start, fought back, played smart basketball and made some clutch plays at the end.
