The Carroll Academy Lady Rebels won a pair of games last week, including a big district win against Oak Hill.
The Lady Rebels beat Oak Hill 47-33 on Tuesday and followed that up with a 52-48 win over rival Kirk on Friday night.
Despite some big nights from Reese Fulton, the Rebels weren’t as fortunate as they lost 47-31 to Oak Hill and 43-32 to Kirk.
Carroll will return to action this week as they hosted Central Holmes in a key district contest and will make the long road trip to Marshall on Friday for another district game.
