Chaquita McGee drives to the hoop for two of her 14 points against Vicksburg. Yazoo City’s boys basketball team needed extra minutes to earn their first win on the year, outscoring Madison Ridgeland Academy 8-2 in overtime for the 43-37 win at the Yazoo County Classic on Saturday.

Head coach Archie Carlyle was happy about his team’s defensive efforts, except against the Patriots Caleb Miskelly, who finished with a game-high 28 points on the night.

The Yazoo City Lady Indians made quick work of Vicksburg in the previous game, winning comfortably 37-15 without the services of senior Za’hra Williams who sat out with a leg injury.
