Help is exactly what the Lady Farmers need if they’re to qualify for the playoffs.

The first thing they had to do themselves was beat Howe, Tuesday, Jan. 30, and visiting Leonard at 6:15 p.m. Friday, Feb. 2 in District 10-3A.

“We must beat Howe, which is a team that we haven’t beaten in a while I don’t think,” FHS head coach Fred Tucker said. “We’ll lace ‘em up and go play the best that we can. I really believe this team has what it takes to win out, we just have to go do it.”

The latter contest is also the night seniors will be honored.

That group of girls features Tamara Ellis, Lynzey Tucker, Brooke Bridges, Alexis Bee, Sara Hurst and Kylee Davis.
