GRAVETTE -- The Morrilton Lady Devil Dogs didn't allow the Lady Lions (23-9) to score Friday until DaLacie Wishon muscled up a shot inside at the 2:58 mark, ending a dry spell of more of almost nine minutes without a bucket.
The Lady Lions did get within 34-31 after Brynn Romine hit a three-pointer with 1:38 remaining, but Morrilton sealed the win, 36-31, when Aubrey Henderson hit two free throws with 13.4 seconds left.
The Gravette girls took third place in regionals at Pea Ridge by defeating Dardanelle in the consolation round on Saturday, 61-54.
