The last time the Lady Bearcats of Denton-Geyser-Stanford played at the Northern C Divisional Basketball Tournament, most of the current Lady Bearcats were in the lower elementary grades. This year’s squad secured enough conference wins to take third place in District 8C. They lost one game at the District 8C Tournament against Roy-Winifred in semifinal action and fought back on Saturday to win two games and gain a third-place trophy at the district tournament. But what was far more important to these girls was the opportunity to play at the divisional level.
