Chase County High School High School lost a close battle to the Osage City Indians Thursday at the Flint Hills Shoot Out Tournament. The three-point victory by Osage City, 48-51, dropped Chase County to 9-3.
It was a disappointing evening for the Lady Dogs. Chase County possessed the lead well into the third quarter — owning an 11-point lead at one point — until the Lady Indians executed a 13-0 run that extended into the fourth quarter. The score became 36-32 in favor of Osage City, and there would be three more lead changes before it was said and done.
Chase County kept it tight through the remaining minutes and with just a few seconds left in the game, had an opportunity to tie the game. Standout post player Madelyn Wilson, who was double-teamed, dished a clean pass to Emily Miser in the post. Miser scored, and the game was tied. But Miser was called for a travel, allowing the Lady Indians to close out the contest. Wilson scored 26 points in the contest. Chase County will face Council Grove High School game on Saturday at 3 p.m.
The Northern Heights High School girls basketball team picked up their first win in the Flint Hills Shoot Out Thursday afternoon. The Lady Cats defeated Central Heights High School, 33-21, in a low-scoring contest, moving to .500 at 5-5. Teagan Hines led the Lady Cats with 18 points. Northern Heights plays Lyndon High School in a fifth-place matchup on Saturday at noon.
The Chase County Bulldogs met the mat Tuesday at the Bluestem Jamboree. Kinzie Rogers won three matches, defeating sixth-ranked (1-4A) Lexi Patterson of McPherson High School. Micah Cauthers racked up two more first-period pins — he now has 16 pins on the year — improving to 18-5. Luke Budke logged a 2-0 record in the 126-pound weight class.

Would be nice if you could've used a picture from the appropriate game that the article was about. Also, some shout outs to those hard working Lady Indians that came away victorious would've been nice instead of only talking about the Chase County Bulldogs points.
