Mountain Grove put another one in the bag on Thursday to keep their perfect season alive. Couldn't have asked for a better way to wrap up 2024 than the 71-42 stomp they got against the Ava Bears. The Panthers have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won six contests by 23 points or more this season.

Mountain Grove's victory bumped their record up to 8-0.

Ava also won't see the court for a while: their next game is against Sparta at 6:00 p.m. on January 6, 2025. Ava is looking for their season's first victory.
