Making her 2016-17 debut in impressive fashion, Ignacio’s Morgan Herrera sprints into the offensive end during the Lady Bobcats’ visit to 3A Bayfield on Tuesday, Jan. 10. She would finish with a team-high 15 points as IHS overcame a first-half double-digit deficit to take a brief 55-53 lead with only 40 seconds left, only to then see BHS swipe back the advantage and finish the thriller as 57-55 victors.

Ladycats stand 3-2 overall, 2-0 in the 2A/1A San Juan Basin League.
