The Abilene Christian School Lady Panthers will play top-ranked Fellowship Academy of Kennedale in the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools state semifinals at 8 p.m. on Wednesday at Waco University High School.

While the ultimate outcome has yet to be decided, one thing isn’t up for debate: There won’t be a “feeling out” period early in the game for either squad.

This will be the third meeting between the TAPPS District 1-3A rivals. The Lady Mustangs sport an impressive 36-2 record — including 56-44 and 54-25 wins over Abilene Christian. But ACS coach Laura Lange believes her ever-improving team is ready to take on its biggest challenge of the season, in the biggest game of the season, so far.
