Historic Hawks... Soaring to State for the first time in program history!!!

The expressions on faces and numbers on the scoreboard tell the tale as members of the Kee girls basketball team race toward their fans with the State Tournament qualifying banner they received after defeating Lynnville-Sully in a 61-58 overtime thriller Monday, February 22 in the Class 1A Region 3 championship game held at Cedar Falls High School. The Hawk triumph advances Kee to the State Basketball Tournament for the first time in school history, where the Hawks are now slated to match their number-five ranking and 22-2 season record against fourth-rated and 23-1 Burlington-Notre Dame Monday, February 29, beginning at 11:45 a.m. at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines. Find additional coverage of the Kee basketball girls' historic feat on pages 15A and 16A in this week's edition of The Standard, and look for a celebratory commemorative banner to be released later this week that you can be a part of by calling The Standard at 563-568-3431.
