Henryetta’s girls set the tone early, using defense and steady scoring to build a lead and hold off Morris down the stretch.

The Lady Knights were paced by Aubrey Taylor, who led all scorers with 14 points. Kynlee Wynne added 10 points, providing a strong inside presence and key baskets in the second half.

Additional scoring came from Jordyn Goodman with five points, Maddie Rock with four, and Zoe Boatright and Karsyn Goodman, who each contributed two points. Morris was led by Taylor Phillips with nine points, followed by Kailyn Fixico with seven and Alayna Fixico with six. Kailynn Lukenbill added four points.
