Girls’ Basketball Makes History

STORY BY ERIC MORSE (US’90)

THE GIRLS’ VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM MADE HISTORY THIS MONTH, reaching the Missouri state championship game for the first time in School history. Led by freshman forward Dasia Scott and junior Jayla Hawkins, the Panthers showed grit, resilience, and unselfishness all season. Their 24-7 regular season record launched them into the Missouri State Championship tournament.

Speaking to reporters after the championship game, Scott reflected on the special season. “We really made a name for ourselves this year. We made history and people are going to remember everyone on this team for what they did this year.”

Added Hawkins, “I think people know about us now. They see what Principia is capable of doing.”
