Wow! The local high school girls basketball team just won the Class 3A State Championship! They finished with a record of 29-3 and won the championship match by 11! To make things more nail-bitingly exciting, the girls were down by 16 in the first quarter before making a HUGE comeback to win. This is the best De Queen has ever done in basketball.
Another plus to all of this is that the team only has two seniors who will be leaving. The rest will be returning next year and hopefully repeating! That would be amazing, but for right now, this first ever state championship is a very sweet deal for the little town of De Queen.
