The 13-1 HFCS varsity girls sealed the deal for their second consecutive Wasaren League crown last Friday when they defeated Tamarac on their home court. By not losing a game since a one point loss to Hoosic Valley on January 15, the Ladies cemented their hold on first place. Had the Panthers lost any game they would have tied Hoosic Valley. Hoosic Valley was lurking, one game back, just waiting for the Panthers to make a slip that never happened. In 2015, the Ladies used the league title as a springboard to earn their way to the state championship game.

HF 47- Ravena- 37

HF 51 – Tamarac- 38
Brittenkill HS, 2/5. Tamarac stayed with the Panthers for the first three quarters and kept it close throughout but the Panthers ultimately came away with the win.
