The Lady Flames improved to 2-0 GSC and 7-0 overall. The visiting Lady Hawks dropped to 0-1, 0-4. Lee will break for Thanksgiving and return to action on Dec. 3 when they host Johnson University (6 p.m.). Bigger challenges will come when they host Young Harris College on Dec. 7 and Lander University (S.C.) on Dec. 11.

"It was a good start to the Thanksgiving break. It's always good to play well at home and now we have a chance to take some time to recharge," said Lee head coach Marty Rowe.
