The Lady Tornadoes (3-17, 0-10 TVC Hocking) honored seniors Cheyene Dunn, Lindsay Teaford and Lynzee Tucker before the contest, then rode that momentum early on while establishing 10-3 cushion just six minutes into the contest.
The hosts finished the quarter on a small 5-3 run, allowing SHS to take a 15-6 cushion after eight minutes of action.
The Lady Falcons, however, countered with a 12-6 spurt in the second canto — allowing the Purple and Gold to take a 21-18 lead into the intermission. MHS (3-14, 2-8) continued that rhythm into the second half, going on a small 5-4 run in the third to cut the deficit down to 25-23 entering the finale.
Abby Toth helped lead the Miller rally down the stretch, scoring 10 of her game-high 19 points in the fourth — which helped the guests turn a one-possession deficit into a one-possession triumph.
Dunn led SHS with a double-double effort of 18 points and 10 rebounds, followed by Morgan McMillan with nine markers and Maggie Cummins with five points. Tucker was next with four, while Jessica Riffle added three and Teaford with two.
Angie Eynon rounded out the SHS scoring with one point. The hosts were 14-of-24 at the free throw line for 58 percent and had team totals of 31 rebounds, 10 steals, 10 assists and committed 23 turnovers.
The Lady Tornadoes were also 13-of-45 overall from the field for 29 percent, including a perfect 2-of-2 from three-point territory.
Following Toth was Lauren Thompson with nine points, while Haley Crawford and Megan Vogelsong added eight and six markers, respectively.
Southern concludes the regular season on a nine-game losing streak and will start Division IV tournament play on Monday when it travels to Athens High School for a sectional semifinal against Symmes Valley at 8 p.m.
