Antonious Markray ended a stellar high-school career with a game high 
of 29 points for the Lumberjacks. This is the first State title in the 
modern era for Springhill, Louisiana.
  Also winning a State title this weekend were the Class B champions 
from Zwolle High School. The Hawks beat Rapides 55-53 with Antonio 
Holmes leading the way. He finished with 17 points and was awarded the
