Upperman High of Baxter will meet Knox Bearden for the championship at 5 p.m. tonight at Hal Henard Gym.

Upperman earned their berth by defeating Daniel Boone 63-55 in the Tuesday semifinals.

The Bees built a big third quarter lead, saw the Blazers rally and cut the gap to three points but Upperma would never let them make the big shot they needed to get even.

Sadie South and Taylor Dolente each scored 19 points to lead the winners. Maggie Butler scored 10.

Daniel Boone got 22 points from Andrea Flores in a losing effort.
