The Lady Aggies put themselves in the “Catbird’s Seat” Friday night as they remained undefeated in District 2-B with a 42-29 victory to lock up a season sweep of Simsboro at the CHS Gym.
Reese Brown did the driving for the Lady Aggies, pouring in 16 points while Sadie Jones added eight and Brelyn Pyle and Piper Jackson chipped in with six each for Chourant.
The Lady Tigers kept things tight early on, allowing Choudrant only a one-point advantage at 8-7 heading into the second quarter.
But the Lady Aggies battled back in the second stanza, outsourcing the Lady Tigers 14-6 to build a 22-13 lead at intermission.
Simsboro cut into that lead in the third quarter, slicing a point off the Lady Aggies’ advantage as Choudrant led 30–24 heading into the final eight minutes of action.
That’s when the Lady Aggies took over at the charity stripe, with Brown connecting on all five of her free throw attempts while Pyle swished all four of her tries to propel the Lady Aggies to the win.
The Lady Aggies will next play host to Downsville on Tuesday before playing at Forest on Friday.
Sandwiched in between those District 2-B contests will be a game at Ouachita Parish High School on Wednesday.
