CROSSVILLE — The Cumberland County High Lady Jets finished fourth in the District 6AAA Tournament Monday night, losing 60-37 to White County, and will travel to Bradley Central Friday evening to face the Bearettes, 51-43 winner over Cleveland in the District 5AAA Tournament.

Rebecca Teeple added four points for the Lady Jets, who were four of 13 from the  floor and one of two from the charity stripe with four turnovers.

There were three ties and four lead changes before the Warriorettes 25-21 lead late in the second quarter, but a layup by Kelsie Eldridge and a three-pointer by VanWinkle gave the Lady Jets a 26-25 lead at the break.

CCHS was four of nine from the field with four turnovers, while White County was four of 11 from the field and five of six from the charity stripe.

White County outscored CCHS 17-8 in the fourth quarter, as the Lady Jets were three of 14 from the field with two turnovers. VanWinkle buried a trey to stop the scoring drought early in the final stanza, while Teeple added five points in the quarter.

For the game, CCHS was 12 of 52 from the field and seven of 10 from the free throw line with 27 rebounds, seven assists, six steals and 16 turnovers, while White County was 19 of 40 from the field and 17 of 25 from the charity stripe with 14 turnovers.
