The Lady Eagles will be in action Saturday as they look to soar into the state finals.

No. 8 Jac-Cen-Del (19-3) will meet No. 4 Vincennes Rivet (21-4) for the Class A semistate game at Richmond High School at 1 p.m. Saturday.

The winner will battle either Oregon-Davis or Lafayette Central Catholic for the state championship at the Hulman Center in Terre Haute on March 8.

The path to the semistate started after the Lady Eagles defeated Hauser and South Decatur for a sectional championship. Last weekend, they beat Tindley 74-30 and then a narrow 53-52 victory over White River Valley netted them a regional championship

Before the Lady Eagles leave for the big game, students and faculty will host at a pep rally at 2:30 p.m. Friday.

A fan bus for students and adults will depart from Osgood Saturday morning. If anyone is interested in catching a ride to Richmond, contact Jac-Cen-Del Schools at (812) 689-4643. It is $5 for adults.

Good Luck Lady Eagles!
