Good evening, Oiler Nation!
The Lady Oilers competed in the 2A Basketball Semi-Finals today in Jackson. We didn’t finish with a game win, but our players HELD THEIR OWN against a team many perceived to be invincible.
So, we are FOREVER PROUD of our ladies’ determination and perseverance, and we look forward to heading to the Big House again in 2025!
Go, Lady Oilers!
