In the end, it was Pawnee advancing, as the Lady Blackbears advanced with a 49-44 victory.
Trailing 35-33 midway through the fourth quarter, it was Pawhuska’s Hannah Reynolds who nailed a three-pointer to give Pawhuska a 36-35 lead. Unfortunately, that is the last time Pawhuska held a lead, as Haeil Stevens went 7 of 10 down the stretch from the free throw line to seal the victory.
Pawhuska led 10-7 at the end of the first quarter and Pawnee held a slim 16-15 lead at halftime. The Lady Blackbears extended that lead to 32-30 going into the final frame.
Reynolds led Pawhuska in scoring with 13 points, while Fallon Bowman added 10 and Jordan Nelson had seven. Pawhuska will now play the loser of Oklahoma Christian Academy and Meeker on Friday morning at 11 a.m.
