The Lady Rams took care of Hanna Elk Mountain Medicine Bow Friday morning to open the Wrangler Invitational Tournament in Shoshoni with a 44-28 win over the Lady Miners.
Dubois led 21-0 before Hanna finally scored on a free throw.
Saturday the sledding was much tougher with a 51-17 loss to one of the best Class 1-A teams in the state in the Little Snake River Rattlers and a 58-20 loss to the 7-0 and soon-to-be top-ranked Rocky Mountain Lady Grizz.
Dubois rode the crest of that 21-0 lead on eight first period points by Arianna Foster, including a pair of 3-point shots.
Keira Wage and Kenzi Day each tallied three layups each for a dozen more points and Sami Becker connected on a follow shot for 22 opening period points.
It took the Lady Rams three more periods to match that scoring spree.
Dubois cooled off in the middle periods and had just three points in the fourth quarter to hold on for the win.
Day tallied 18 points to lead the team.
Little Snake River is a quick team that can press and score easily and Rocky Mountain is just solid across all five starting positions with a deep bench.
The Lady Grizzlies have size, quickness and can shoot the ball from the perimeter or take it inside.
