HOLTON______RECORDER, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13, 2019, PAGE 6 SPORTS Wednesday Scenes From The 2019 Class 3A Girls State Basketball Tournament Photos By Michael Powls

ROYAL RV TEAM Lady Panthers take home top basketball prize!

In the top left photo, RV senior Kiikto Thomas, No. 21 in the dark jersey, dribbles the ball upcourt against Norton in the sec- ond round game at the Class 3A Girls State Bas- ketball Tournament last weekend at Hutchinson. In the photo above, RV senior Mary Broxterman, No. 24 in the dark jersey, sliced through two Eureka defenders in the first round game at the state tourna- ment en route to the basket. Broxterman led her team in scoring and rebounding at the state tournament. The photo at left shows part of the Royal Valley student section during the state championship game versus Cheney. A big crowd from Royal Valley was on hand to see the Lady Pan- thers win the state champi- onship in basketball. It was just the second time in school history that a Royal Valley sports team won a state championship. The RVHS cross country team was state champion in 1974, it was reported.

DOUBLE TROUBLE - In the photo at left, RV sophomore Wa- kiyan Irving (No. 5 in the dark jersey) is shown dribbling the ball upcourt against Cheney. One of the referees for the game, shown at the right in the photo, was John Stous of Holton. In the photo above, RV sophomore Mahpiya Irving (No. 4 in the dark jersey and Wakiyan’s twin sister), is also shown dribbling the ball upcourt versus Cheney.
