State Bound!

For the first time in school history, the Flatonia boys basketball team is going to the state tournament. With a 65-54 victory over Thorndale Saturday at Buda in the regional finals, the Flatonia boys punched their ticket to the final four. Above, Flatonia head coach Chris Sodek cuts down his piece of the net (as all team members got to do) after the regional final win. Below, Flatonia’s Jaidyn Guyton in action in Friday’s regional semis. Flatonia now advances to the state semis Friday at 10 a.m. in the Alamodome. More on Page B1 today.
