On Friday night against Porum, the Lady Grizzlies fell 53-20 to the Lady Panthers, then the Grizzlies lost 53-10 to the Panthers.

The Riverside Conference home games on Jan. 28 against Gore were postponed due to illness issues for the Gans squads. The games have been rescheduled for 6 and 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Bryant “Big Country” Reeves Fieldhouse.

In the girls’ loss to Porum, the Lady Panthers, who led 16-14 after a quarter, put away the game with a 14-2 second period to take a 30-16 lead at halftime en route to a 44-18 advantage going into the fourth quarter.

There was no more information reported on the Midway games by press time.

On Friday, the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association (OSSAA) handed out the teams’ district assignments, which saw both teams sent with Porum to Weleetka for the Class A District Tournament, set for Feb. 14-15.
