The last time the McLoud Redskins were district basketball champions, most of the current players were still in diapers and some weren’t born yet. That was 2004, but the streak ended Monday night when McLoud pulled off an intense 61-58 overtime win over Dickson.

Davenport traveled to Yale on Saturday for its regional tournament and McLoud hosted Dickson Monday night in a Class 4A district. At right, Ellie Tippy (with ball) is defended tightly in the Davenport girls’ loss to Garber.
