Smackover ain't scared

Don't look now but the Smackover senior girls are doing it.
The Lady Buckaroos won the SAU Tournament Saturday, beating Magnolia 32-30. It was the third win in three days for a team that plays about seven girls. The three wins were over two 5A schools and a 4A squad.
There's still a lot of season left for the unbeaten Lady Bucks. Don't know if they can keep flying this high for the entire trip. They're going to have to stop for fuel sooner or later. But, at least Marsha Cowling knows what her team is capable of doing.
It doesn't get any easier this week as Smackover takes on Strong in the first round of the Magnolia Tournament on Thursday. The winner will likely get Magnolia with El Dorado waiting in the finals.
Don't know if Smackover can pull off the three wins in three days trick against those three teams. I know one thing for sure, though.
They ain't scared.
***
Both Ouachita Baptist and Arkansas Tech posted overtime victories Saturday.
Marandalynn Parker scored 12 points with four rebounds and three steals in the Lady Tigers' 65-61 win over York College. Parker had two turnovers while playing 42 minutes.
Julie Smith is slowly working her way into the rotation at Arkansas Tech. The Golden Suns beat West Alabama 76-74 in OT on Saturday. Smith had an assist in eight minutes of action.
Ellana White wasn't listed on the boxscore of SAU's last two games.
