Ozark seeks Pink & White championship — and more

It’s time for more titles at Ozark High School.

So believes junior Anna Hitt, whose energetic play on Saturday night helped boost the second-seeded Lady Tigers into a championship game Monday in the Pink & White Classic.

They will be seeking their third Pink & White title and first since the 45-year-old girls basketball tournament split into two divisions in 2013.

Hitt scored six points to lead a third-quarter surge against upset-minded Republic and then swished a pair of high-arching free throws in the last 20 seconds to help shut the door on a 48-44 victory.
