Wallace County had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They really took it to the Otis-Bison Cougars for the full four quarters, racking up a 67-27 victory. The Wildcats have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won ten matches by 20 points or more this season.

Wallace County's win on Saturday was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Jersi Benisch, who posted 17 points along with eight steals and seven assists. Benisch is on a roll when it comes to steals, as she's now grabbed three or more in each of the last five games she's played. Jaelyn Daily was another key player, going 6-for-13 en route to 16 points in addition to seven steals and six rebounds.

Wallace County is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests. That somehow still isn't as good as their 16-4 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.5 points over those games. Otis-Bison's defeat dropped their record down to 6-15.

Wallace County has already played their next game, a 52-47 win against Wheatland-Grinnell on the 7th. Otis-Bison does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
