The Franklin Park Lady Bobcats overcame a 15 point second half deficit to pull out a remarkable 43-41 win over the Centralia Tigerettes in the Class L title game held in Centralia.  The Lady Bobcats used a 21-0 run to start the 4th quarter to erase a 33-22 deficit after 3 quarters.  Centralia would not give up and Aliyah Rush and Mariah Winegarner hit shots late to keep Centralia in it, but in the end it was a victory for Salem in Coach Melissa Fehrenbacher’s final game on the bench.

Emma Gregg led Salem with 16 points in the victory.  Olivia Ferhenbacher and Jordan Kessler added 8 each with Breanna Thruman finishing with 6 and Lilly Blagoue 5.  Josiyah Wallace led the Tigerettes with 17, Aliyah Rush added 13 and Mariah Winegarner finished with 8.

The Selmaville Lady Rockets capped off a great year with a 48-23 regional title win at home over New Horizon Christian.  Natalie Lee finished with 19, Lauren Burge 12 and Kale Benjamin 10 in the win.
