The Lady Wampus Cats: Hosts and Champions
The Lady Wampus Cats, a name synonymous with excellence in girls’ basketball, are gearing up for another exciting season. This esteemed team, boasting a rich history of victories, will be hosting an invitational tournament that promises to showcase some of the best talent in the state.
An Invitational to Remember
Starting on Thursday and concluding on Saturday, the Lady Wampus Cats Invitational will feature eight top-notch teams vying for the championship title. The tournament, held at Buzz Bolding Arena in Conway, will see Little Rock Christian and Bentonville kicking things off at 4 p.m., followed by Little Rock Parkview and Nashville at 5:30 p.m.
The Host Team's Ambitions
The host team, led by Coach Ashley Hutchcraft, is eager to take on its first opponent, Lake Hamilton, at 7 p.m. on Thursday. Despite missing last year’s leading scorer and rebounder, Alexis Cox, due to a season-ending injury, the Lady Wampus Cats remain confident. They will be boosted by the contributions of collegiate signees Emerie Bohannon and Alivia Cox, who are set to join the University of Central Arkansas early next fall.

The upcoming season promises to be filled with both challenges and victories for the Lady Wampus Cats. With a roster packed with talented players and the support of a passionate community, they are poised to make a strong statement.
