It all came down to the final two minutes against Converse Judson last Friday at the Alamodome.

With two Sachse starters fouled out, the Lady Rockets came back to pull out the 71-66 win in the Class 6A semifinals.

“We were not able to control the pace of the game like we wanted to during that last two minutes to secure the game,” SHS head coach Donna McCullough said. “I still felt like we were the better team, they just were able to do what they needed to do at a critical time.”
