McCrary shines as Prairie tops Xavier

Wed - 23 Jan Written by Tom Fruehling

Cedar Rapids Prairie’s Courteney McCrary was a one-girl wrecking crew in the second half and her teammates did a nice job picking up after her Tuesday night on their home floor as the Hawks cleaned conference co-leader Xavier, 54-47.

McCrary, a rock-solid 5-foot-9 senior prone to foul trouble, knocked down seven of eight shot attempts after halftime on the way to a game-high 21 points.

While she was scoring from all angles, Prairie (11-5, 7-2 MVC) built a one-point lead into a 16-point bulge with 5:30 to go.

Xavier, Wash girls net favorable draws

Mon - 21 Jan Written by Jim Ecker

The Xavier Saints will not have to leave 42nd Street for the Class 4A regional girls basketball tournament this year, making a potential trip to the state tournament perhaps a little easier for them.

The Washington Warriors, on the other hand, will have to travel to Newton for the Class 5A regional finals if they advance that far, making their path to the state tournament a little harder.

Xavier and Washington are the two best bets from the Metro area to reach the state tournament in Des Moines this season, and they learned their regional assignments Monday when the pairings were released by the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union.
