January 9th against Carrizo Springs, the Arabians hit the court hard and after a quick aggressive start they took the lead and never lost it.

The decisive win was due to the aggressive defense and getting the rebound.
“We really played well on both ends of the floor. Offensively, we did a good job of working the ball around to get some really good shots. It was a great team effort on both ends of the court and a big win for the girls,” stated Coach Jim Sessions.
A new gym was no help for Crystal City last Friday when the Arabians beat them 45-30. A strong press held Crystal City to just 12 points in the first half while helping Devine score 19.

The win took us to 3-0 in district play,” said Coach Sessions.
