Lady Whippets fall to the Dusters in the Sub District tonight to end their season. It was a tough shooting night but the effort was fantastic. These seniors had a remarkable basketball career with 2 state tournament births and a 3rd place finish in 2025. They always played with great energy and have high character. Win or lose, this is always a program Whippet Nation can be proud of!
