The middle school basketball regular season officially came to an end with the Verde Valley League Championship tournament, but only one of the four teams that participated will extend its season to the state tournament.

Big Park Post Sophia Perry prepares to take a shot during a regular season game at Big Park against the Clarkdale-Jerome Rams. Perry was selected as the Most Valuable Player of the Verde Valley League Championship tournament as well as selected to the All-Tournament team with teammate Liza Westervelt. The  Big Park girls are 15-0 and will play in the Small Schools State tournament in Clarkdale, Thursday through Saturday, Feb. 7 to 9. The undefeated Big Park Community School girls basketball team won its second consecutive league championship tournament, extending its perfect season record to 15-0, after defeating the Camp Verde Middle School Cowboys 44-18 in the Verde Valley League Tournament finals on Saturday, Jan. 26, at Oak Creek School.

“We always expect to win, but I didn’t expect this,” Big Park Head Coach Kirk Westervelt said. “I am very proud of them. All 10 kids have worked hard for it and have great attitudes all season.”
