Head Coach Courtney Young’s squad placed four scorers in double figures in the balanced effort, with Chaylee Beard, Madison Suire, Lamiyah Sanchez and Sienna Guidry all notching big nights. The Lady Hornets outscored Midland in every stanza of the contest, and used a 48-point first half to propel them to the big victory.
LAKE ARTHUR – The Lake Arthur Lady Tigers did what many teams have struggled to do over the years on Friday night, and that was to topple down perennial 2A power Lafayette Christian Academy (LCA). The No. 5 Lady Tigers took down the Division III No. 1 Lady Knights by a final of 63-55 in their 6-2A opener at “Nookie” Moore Gymnasium. Lake Arthur placed four players in double figures in the win, and nearly got a triple-double from sophomore guard Vivian Sketoe in the win. Sketoe, Kali Hornsby, Darrah Broussard and Hailey Broussard all hit double digits in the huge win for the Lady Tigers. A big second quarter in which the Lady Tigers outscored LCA 17-8 proved to be the deciding factor in the scoring column, and Lake Arthur held on throughout the second half to secure the win.
