Congratulations to our Lady Owls basketball team on an outstanding season! Our players and coaches never gave up and were able to sustain a rally toward the end of the game last night in Rusk, but came up on the short end of a 53-50 loss to Neches. However, this team is tough, resilient, and will work to make another run toward the state tournament next year. We can't wait to start the journey again.
