Final from Frankfort. Great job, Lady Stangs!

 

Brossart plays NCC @ 10am tomorrow.

Congrats to the Lady Stangs and Coach Feldmann. It's going to be hard to beat a good NCC team twice in a week, but I hope they'll be up for it.

Congrats to Brossart! Coach Feldmann has done an amazing job this season, super nice guy!

Great job. Congrats on the big victory.

Earlier this year the Lady 'Stangs took the city of Owensboro today they made it a clean sweep of every school in Kentucky named Holy Cross. They put together one of their most complete games of the year beating Louisville Holy Cross (now 18-4) this time 49-43 in a game they had led most of the game and atone point (31-20) had an 11 point advantage.
