The Lady Hawks have a favorable matchup in the first round but cannot overlook the threat Comfort poses. Sophomore Brylyn Watts should have a big game against Comfort as the Lady Hawks match up well with the opposition. Senior Kamryn Williams needs to control her opponents in the paint and not allow them free reign to the basket.
Come out and support the Lady Hawks as they pursue a state championship.
