To calculate the mean of the points scored by the Lady Tigers basketball team, you first need to add up all the points and then divide by the number of games.

The points scored are: 47, 58, 39, 77, 52, 61, 64, 55.

1. First, add the points together:

\[
47 + 58 + 39 + 77 + 52 + 61 + 64 + 55 = 453
\]

2. Next, divide the total by the number of games (which is 8):

\[
\text{Mean} = \frac{453}{8} = 56.625
\]

3. Finally, rounding to the nearest tenth, the mean is:

\[
56.6
\]

So the mean to the nearest tenth is **56.6**.
