This year's 2020-2021 basketball season is almost complete, but our varsity lady yeguas still have work to do in the playoffs. We were able to finish second in the district with a record of 8-2 and another amazing season. We have earned another spot to compete in the 2A playoffs and will begin our playoff run on the 11th or 12th of February depending on the seeding. These girls have been doing amazing on and off the basketball court.
Thank you for your support,
Coach Montgomery
