Tonkawa, OK – The Neosho County Panthers handled business on Tuesday night, rolling to an 85–51 victory over Northern Oklahoma–Tonkawa behind one of their most balanced, energetic performances of the season.

From the opening tip, Neosho set the tone with pressure, pace, and shot-making. The Panthers led 23–20 after the first quarter, but a lockdown defensive stretch in the second and third blew the game wide open. Neosho held NOC to just 21 total points over the final three quarters, unleashing #94feetofchaos from start to finish.

Laynie Winfrey was unstoppable, dropping 26 points while splashing eight threes (8-for-15). Every time Tonkawa tried to string together momentum, Winfrey answered with another dagger.

Chloe Parker added her own firepower with 16 points, including four 3-pointers, while also grabbing 7 rebounds and swiping 3 steals in a full-effort performance.

Sophia Mireles was ridiculously efficient, scoring 9 points on 3-for-4 shooting in just 11 minutes.

Janae Davis stuffed the stat sheet again — 5 points, 6 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals — commanding the floor with poise and pace.

Neosho forced 20 steals, turned NOC over 39 times, and exploded for 30 fourth-quarter points to close out the win in dominant fashion.

The Panthers move to 7–6 on the season.
