Congrats to Jacob Murphy and Gavilan Bland of Sikeston for making state.
And, Jamie...Sikeston's record is wrong for the semosportsweb top 25 basketball poll on the webpage. However, it's correct at 19-3 when you click on the link and look at the full ranking. Just thought I'd let ya know.
CONGRATS to Patrick Goforth..we are proud of you!
