Fort Towson guards Jaylee Perry and Hailey Mc-Clure showed their experience as they continuously and calmly broke Boswell’s full court press and created a “numbers advantage” at their offensive end of the court. This allowed the Lady Tigers to control the tempo and was vital to the Lady Tigers’ victory.

Hugo News Sports At the halfway point of the season, the Buffaloes and Lady Buffs are both experiencing changes and growth that could affect their playoff runs. Hugo was back home last week for the first time since winter break, and there were noticeable personnel changes to both teams.

Halito! Chim achukma? (Hello, how are you?) It’s Native American Heritage Month again. This will be my fifth year to write a column for the Ada (and Hugo) News, and those of you who’ve kept up with me are keenly aware that I like to write about sports and history. With history, it doesn’t change that much... mostly opinions.

Greetings! It’s basketball season again. I struggled with finding an appropriate title, but we will see where this one takes us. I’d like to wish my best to both retired and active basketball coaches who read this, as well as parents and fans.
