Basketball hopes still alive

As of press time, the Lady Bombers and Bombers have completed round two of the OSSAA Class 3-A, Area IV Playoffs at Jones. After a couple of push backs and reschedules due to the Siberian like weather we experienced last week, the games commenced. Lady Bombers squared off against the Lady Indians of Little Axe in the consolation bracket. Due to an abrupt incident on ice, the head Lady Bomber coach was on the disabled list. Coach Collins injured reserve status left the team without his services. Coach April McClung stepped in and filled the lead role with Maurice “Mo” Walton assisting. The Lady Indians struggled extensively and the Bomber coeds sailed mightily and ended the Little Axe season with an 89-43 victory.
