Player of the Year: Anyra Wilson, Wossman

The 17th annual Bayou Jamb will kick off on Friday, Aug. 25 at Rebel Stadium.

Otis Robinson takes a business-like approach to coaching.

A matchup between two local giants on the base paths, Ouachita Christian (12-6) and Neville (11-7), produced a memorable Game 3 that produced a hard-fought series win for the Tigers.

The No. 1 Claiborne Christian Lady Crusaders (16-3) are rolling on a 10-game win streak featuring victories over larger opponents like Neville, Franklin Parish, Oak Grove and Caldwell.

Anyra Wilson could list several reasons why she loves basketball. Among the things she’d rattle off is perhaps an uncommon one that isn’t often verbalized by her peers.

The Carroll Bulldogs swept District 1-3A honors after winning the district title in a tournament format. 

Claiborne Christian’s Kaleb Gregory earned First-Team All-District honors after averaging 22 points per game.

Neville’s Daylan Robinson earned First-Team honors on the boys basketball District 2-4A 2023 list.

Ouachita’s Jonathan Bradshaw and Jeremy Madison swept top District 2-5A honors after capturing the 2022-23 district championship.

Blessed with a deep pitching staff and a lineup that is flooded with future college baseball players, the 2022 Class 5A State Champions do not need much help, but West Monroe will certainly take it.

Three players from Ouachita Parish earned First-Team District 2-1A nods.

Time slows down in the spring.

The West Monroe Rebels haven’t shied away from competition. After scheduling contests against some of the best teams Louisiana has to offer, the Rebels are standing tall with a 15-1 record to start the 2023 season. Perhaps the national rankings that were garnered before the season were warra…

The Sterlington Lady Panthers (15-2) have put the entire state on notice.

The Carroll Bulldogs played championship-level defense, but simply could not get enough on the offensive end to win a Non-Select Division II State Championship Friday night.

West Monroe won the marathon, and the Lady Rebels certainly had to sweat it out.

Wossman's Otis Robinson and Anyra Wilson secured coach and player of the year honors in District 1-3A. 

Ouachita Christian head coach Stan Humphries garnered coach of the year honors, while senior guard Anna Dale Melton shared District 2-1A MVP honors with Cedar Creek's Allie Furr. 

Truth be told — Carolyn Guerriero wasn’t the biggest fan of Tuesday night’s baseball contest between Pineville and Neville.

After capturing the District 2-4A title in 2023, Peabody head coach Gary Stewart and Katreal Earthly received top honors in the district. 

After winning District 2-5A with a 9-1 record, Alexandria head coach Jimmy Wenslow captured coach of the year honors, while Ruston's Jaliyah McWain was honored as the district's MVP. 

The No. 3 Carroll Bulldogs started fast and never looked back in a 63-57 victory over No. 2 Iowa Wednesday night. 

The No. 1 Wossman Wildcats (29-5) were denied its sixth state championship game appearance in the last eight years when No. 4 Bossier defeated the Wildcats, 48-42, Tuesday night in the Non-Select Division II semifinals.
