The No. 28 Welsh Greyhounds nearly pulled off a huge upset over No. 5 North Caddo Friday night on the road. The Hounds fell by a final of 6-3 to end their season.

The Jennings Bulldogs and Welsh Greyhounds both their names called on Sunday when the LHSAA released their 2020 playoff brackets. As expected, Jennings will enter the postseason as the No.

LAKE ARTHUR – The Lake Arthur Tigers ended their regular season Friday night with a 41-7 defeat at the hands of the Kaplan Pirates on senior night.

The Jennings Lady Bulldogs blasted the Church Point Lady Bears this past week on the hardwood by a final of 80-36.

WELSH - The regular season for the Welsh Greyhounds came to an end Thursday night when they dropped a 63-7 decision to Lafayette Christian Academy in a District 6-2A contest. Now the Greyhounds await the possibility of entering the class 2-A non-select school state playoffs. Welsh was at number 26 before the contest, and should finish anywhere between 28 to 30. The top 32 teams make the playoffs.

RAPIDES – The Lake Arthur Lady Tigers (LA) upped their 2020 record to a perfect 3-0 Thursday night with a 77-34 thrashing of Menard High School at the Rapides Tournament. The Lady Tigers have continued to dominate through their first tests, using a balanced scoring attack and stingy defense.

WELSH - After playing yet another higher classification team, you would expect the Welsh Greyhounds to maybe get a break in scheduling. The Hounds lost to St. Louis last week and will now conclude the regular season schedule by hosting Lafayette Christian in a District 6-2A battle tonight. Lafayette Christian is the number one team in the state among class 2-A teams and have the number one player in the nation in senior safety Sage Ryan. The only loss suffered by the select school was to Acadiana High School in the first week of the season.
