<p class="text-gray-700">The West Texas A&M signee left her mark on Oklahoma High School basketball, and left with an exclamation point on Saturday. Her 45 points in the Finals tied the record for most points scored in a State Tournament game. Henley had 26 points and 15 rebounds in an OT win in the first round, and then added 16 and 12 in a lower scoring affair in the Semi-Finals. Truly one of the most memorable single player performances in a State Tournament. Henley gets position too well, and just doesn't miss when she gets in there. 21/23 shooting in the State Finals is as good as it gets.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Cassell I thought really took control of the game for Chatty in the quarter-finals. A nice 12 and 10 double, she drew 9 fouls from the opposing Lookeba-Sickles Lady Panthers. [player_tooltip player_id='1040241' first='Timber' last='Givens'] hit the half-court heave at the 3rd quarter buzzer to give Chattanooga all the momentum, and it became their game from there. Cassell was also good for 14 points in the Semi-Final loss to Arnett.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Landry struggled to put the ball in the basket in the finals against Hammon, but I couldn't leave her off the All-Tournament team. Had 13 in the Semis, and played great in the Quarter finals. 17 points and 7 rebounds against a 26-2 Smithville team. Landry gets steals that you can't even fault the offensive player for, because they just don't expect someone to be able to get to where they are throwing it. Unreal basketball speed.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">While I thought Bayless was the Arnett MVP against Smithville, Tune really stole the show in the OT win over Chatty. Finished the game with 17 points, six rebounds, and six steals in the game. Hard for the 5'8'' forward to do much against West in the finals, as Senior Harley Shoaf had the best Championship game for the Wildcats. Scoring 15 points off of 3/4 shooting from downtown. Really impressive three-pronged attack from Arnett.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Despite only having one game in the tournament, I was impressed enough with Boatman to put her on the list. Leedey really gave eventual champion Hammon their toughest test, as it took two overtimes to beat them. Boatman scored 19 points on a very efficient shooting night. Junior Daycee Danielson also hit some huge shots from beyond the arc in the late stages of the game that really gave Leedey a good shot at knocking out the champs.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Another Hammon senior going out on top would be guard Justice Espinosa. Had 8 assists in the finals, with only one turnover. In the first round matchup with Leedey she played 40 minutes, shot 50 percent from the field, and had a very efficient 5pts, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists, only turning the ball over three times. Despite having a really big target to throw it too, people make it as hard as they can to get Henley the ball. Often having two girls on her, one low trying to steal any bounce passes, and one behind making sure that even if she catches the lob she will have a difficult shot. Did a great job of getting the ball where it needed to be en route to a Gold Ball.</p>
