GAME STORY: Wall uses big second-half run to eliminate Coahoma (box score included)

BIG SPRING —If the rankings are correct, the Wall Lady Hawks are not only the top Class 3A team in the state, but they’ve now beaten two of the top three teams in the span of three days.

Their latest victim: The Coahoma Bulldoggettes, who entered Friday’s Region I-3A DII championship ranked second by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches, only to fall 56-42 to the Lady Hawks. 

Four Wall players scored in double-digits at the Dorothy Garrett Coliseum, with Jewels Johnson and Kathrine Lewis leading the way with 14 and 12 points respectively.  Kenzzie Covert and Brynlee Graves added 10 each as the Lady Hawks improved to 35-3. 

Wall, which  toppled third-ranked Idalou in the regional semis on Tuesday, now advance to face sixth-ranked Paradise (33-4) in the state semifinals.  This will be a rematch of a previous meeting between the two teams, won by Wall, 55-37 on Dec. 30.

Coahoma closed its season at 34-2, led by Addison Schmidt with a game-high 19 points and Bree Lewis with 13.
