COEUR d'ALENE - Kelly Madsen scored a team-high 13 points for the Timberlake Tigers, which hit five 3-pointers in the fourth quarter to pull away from the Coeur d'Alene Charter Panthers 56-37 in a nonleague girls basketball game Thursday night at Holy Family Catholic School.

"The first three quarters, I thought we played pretty well," Coeur d'Alene Charter coach Logan Grant said. "We were right with them and we got tired in the fourth and couldn't get after their shooters like we had been. Their shots started falling in the fourth quarter. I was pleased with the effort tonight."

Lexi Turkenburg scored 18 points for Coeur d'Alene Charter (5-12), which is scheduled to face Orofino on Saturday at Holy Family.

Kara Wenstrom scored 12 points and Taylor Mason added 10 for Timberlake (7-7), which travels to Newport on Saturday.
