The Lady Bears will move on to take on District 23-4A champion Tarkington Thursday night at 6 p.m. at Kountze High School.

Ally White had seven kills for the Lady Bears. Renna Toomey had five kills while Kaitlin Avery had four and Raley Broussard three.

After trailing Game One 3-1, the Lady Bears erupted on a 15-5 tear to go up 16-8 and never looked back.
LC-M went on an 11-1 spurt in Game Two to go up 13-3. Jasper got to within 17-8 but the Lady Bears closed with a 8-2 run.
Jasper stayed close early in Game Three, trailing just 10-8 at one point.
