I am very proud of this group of girls who have spent their pre-season learning how to support each other and persevere through adversity. They have shown improvement every week as we prepare for our first district play.

Coach Smith Reports: Jan. 5 Aubrey 74 Pinkston 61 The Chaps improved their record to 17-7 with a win over a very good Dallas Pinkston Team. I am really pleased with how we started the game with great defensive team effort. Offensively, we shared the ball well and remained aggressive. This win gives us momentum heading into district. I really think all 6 teams in our district are potential playoff teams, which means it will be a battle to make the playoffs. Record Overall: 17-7 Aubrey Score Contributors: Tyler Hightower 12 Branden West 20 Gavin Barnes 9 Jaedon Bogar 8 Emory Jones 10 Tyler Brown 2 Elijah Herron 1

Coach Gathright Reports: Jan. 5 The Aubrey Lady Chaps fell to 0-1 in district and 9-10 overall with a 38-23 loss to Panther Creek. The score by quarters for Aubrey were 8, 0, 8, 7. The score by quarters for Panther Creek were 13, 4, 8, 13. Scorers for Aubrey were Kynadi Hall with 9 points, Brooklyn Weier with 4, Landry Cannon with 3, Shelby Harrington, Molly Ward, and Abby Buxton with 2 points each, and Addy Cagle with 1 point. I was very proud of the effort the girls gave today. We did a very good job in the 2-3 zone, and that kept us in the game. We just had a hard time scoring against the pressure that Panther Creek can apply. We got down early to start the game, but I was proud of the girls continuing to fight to stay in the game. The Lady Chaps return to action on Tuesday night at home against Anna.
