Kingfisher ends postseason run for Lady Diamonds

NOBLE – The Sallisaw Lady Diamonds owned a three-point advantage over fourth-ranked Kingfisher at halftime of Thursday’s Class 4A area tournament elimination game, and stayed within striking distance of the Lady Yellowjackets early in the second half but Sallisaw could not come up with enough points or produce enough defensive stops as the game wore on, bowing to Kingfisher, 48-42 to end the Lady Diamonds’ postseason run.
