In defeat, Teralynn Colston scored a gamehigh 18 points and Abby Pense added 10 points to lead Webbers Falls, followed by Cheyenne Herrier with four points and Bridgette Baer and Lextyn Chappell with a free throw apiece.

In the boys’ loss to McCurtain, the ’Dogs raced out to a 21-7 lead after a period, but the Warriors (4-12) used a 20-16 second period to cut their deficit to 3727 at halftime. A 20-19 third quarter for the Warriors trimmed Mc-Curtain’s advantage to 56-47 after three quarters, but they got no closer.

In defeat, Stryker Chappell led Webbers Falls with a game-high 26 points, followed by Luke Piece with 15 points, Maddux Shelby with nine points, Braydan Robinson with four points, Gunner Shelby with three points and Brutus Robinson with two points.
