Four games into district play, the Sachse Lady Mustangs remain unbeaten thanks to a pair of wins last week. After a comeback victory over Wylie East early in the week, the girls dominated Naaman Forest last Friday to move to 4-0. 

Coach McCullough and the Lady Mustangs cruised through the first two games of the year, but finally met a competitive opponent in Wylie East. The Lady Raiders have some of the best size in the district but were without one of their big posts for the night.
