Ruston High junior Kearra Wilson and senior Journi Douglas earned first and second team All-District 2-5A honors, respectively, after helping lead their team to a 12-8 overall record and a first-round home game in the 2025-26 LHSAA playoffs.

“I am very proud of these young ladies,” Ruston High Head Coach LaShanda Cooper said. “They have put in lots of hard work throughout the year. Having players earn All-District honors is a huge accomplishment for our program. It speaks to the culture we are building. When individual success happens, it’s because the entire program is working together. It shows that we are moving in the right direction.”

Seniors A’Keirah Jones and Angelica Green, along with sophomore Adrianna Robinson, all were named Honorable Mention.

Ruston’s season came to an end in the first round to Ouachita by a final score of 54-42.
