Little Rock Southwest clinched a Class 6A state tournament berth by protecting its home floor and knocking off Conway 64-60 on Tuesday night at Gryphon Arena in Little Rock.
North Little Rock Coach Daryl Fimple was feeling pretty good toward the end of Saturday afternoon's game against Springdale Har-Ber. So much so that he found himself stomping the Gryphon Arena court during the final seconds all while sitting squarely on his team's bench.
There may have been a tense moment or two early on for North Little Rock Coach Johnny Rice during his team's game against Springdale on Friday, but whatever anxiousness he had, it was gone by the midway point of the second quarter.
