The Encampment Lady Tigers are going to State Regionals as a 3rd seed in the Southwest Conference.

With a record of 5-4 in the conference and 9-7 overall, the girls have a chance to get a spot in the state bracket, but they will have to get past the Burlington Lady Huskies first.

The top four teams of the 1A West Regionals go to the state championship in Casper, November 8-10.

The Encampment Tigers kept their winning streak going on October 18, dealing a nearly 50-point homecoming loss to the Hanna, Elk Mountain, Medicine Bow (HEM) Miners.

The Encampment Lady Tigers pulled out two wins and one loss last week. Even with the loss against Cokeville, the Lady Tigers walked off the court Saturday afternoon knowing one thing—Cokeville can be beat.

 

<strong>Encampment vs. HEM</strong>

As their season of firsts comes to an end, the Saratoga Panthers made it to the 9-man playoffs for the first time since 2020 under [then] Head Coach Logan Wright.

The Panthers had possibly one of their best seasons in 40 years catching a win over Lusk [first in 20 years] and a win over Wright overcoming a low scoring game battle putting double digits on the board.

The Saratoga Lady Panthers are sitting at No. 4 in the 1A Southwest Conference—just ahead of Farson-Eden and Fort Washakie—following two tough losses during homecoming.

On Friday, Saratoga hosted the Southeast Lady Cyclones where they went 2-3 against the No. 1 team in the 1A Southeast. Then, on Saturday, the Lady Panthers hosted the Cokeville Lady Panthers where they were dealt a conference loss in three sets.
