The Panthers will face a South Shelby team from the powerful Clarence Cannon Conference. They are no strangers to postseason success as they have made a couple of trips to the Class 3 Final Four in the past five seasons. Both teams like to get up and down the floor and play up tempo basketball. Principia is led by 6'2" 2027 forward [player_tooltip player_id='791650' first='Dasia' last='Scott'], who is a dominant force inside. The Panthers also have a talented 2028 point guard in [player_tooltip player_id='897772' first='Loganne' last='Love'], who is one of the best in the freshman class at her position. South Shelby has a tremendous point guard as well in 2025 [player_tooltip player_id='865973' first='Callie' last='McWilliams'], who has excellent open court speed and bucket-getting ability.

Chadwick's gym was packed to the rafters for this battle of small school state powers. This year, the scene shifts to the SEMO area as Delta is the host school. Although, a few top players are missing from last year's showdown, it should be another fantastic game. Delta is led by 2025 guard [player_tooltip player_id='338659' first='Jade' last='Berry'], a four-year starter who just surpassed the 2,000-point mark in the Bobcats victory over Oak Ridge in the district championship game last Saturday. [player_tooltip player_id='982948' first='Grace' last='Ancell'] is a 5'10" 2025 forward who provides the inside presence. Chadwick is led by the 2025 duo of 5'7 guard [player_tooltip player_id='633990' first='Raeleigh' last='Little'] and 5'9 forward Millie Burkhart.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>*******<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":943394,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/07/IMG_5829.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-943394" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WEST NODAWAY AT NORTH PLATTE, 6 p.m.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A Class 2 Sectional matchup that features two teams with a combined 49 victories.
