  • Lady Rebs beat Franklin in Autism Awareness Classic

    The key to the Lady Rebel’s 58-54 victory was the team’s success in shooting the basketball. Casey shot 51 percent from the field and 86 percent from the charity stripe.
    “The biggest thing for us getting that win was shot selection. We found the right people and the right time and made the shots when we needed them,” Head Coach Randy Salyers said.
