Lakeland got a repeat of Friday's contest, a brief Wolves comeback snuffed out in the fourth quarter.
The Rustlers had a solid defensive effort to start off against the Wolves, leading 18-5 after one. After another dominant quarter, Lakeland allowed NWP to gain some momentum on offence, as the visitors hit several three-point attempts in the third. However, the home team put the game away in the fourth in an 87-51 victory.
Susan Ayaa (17 points) and Abby Crown (18 points) were the Players of the Game.
With the weekend sweep, the Rustlers improve to 5-7. Next week, they square off against the King's Eagles in an important North Division matchup.
