The undefeated season continues, and the quest to finish it off with a state championship will continue with tonight’s 71-58 victory over the Shirley Blue Devils in the Class 1A state basketball tournament semifinal. County Line defeated a very good and determined Shirley team for the right to advance to next weekend’s championship game in Hot Springs at Bank OZK Arena.
County Line will play the Marked Tree Indians next weekend after Marked Tree defeated Brinkley in the first boys semifinal game of the afternoon session. Marked Tree won by the score of 56-44 and will also advance to the Class 1A state championship game in Hot Springs.
The 1A championship game is scheduled for March 10 at 7:45 p.m. Fans who wish to attend the game will have to purchase tickets online in advance of Friday’s game.
RNN Sports will have a recap on tonight’s game along with a championship game preview later this week online at residentnewsnetwork.com. And RNN Sports will see you in Hot Spring next week to capture the game in pictures and to bring you all of the action both online and in our RNN Logan County Edition weekly newspaper.
Congratulations to the Indians and we will see you in Hot Springs!
