Hang The Banner! Lady Braves Win State Title With Blowout Victory Over East Columbus

Wake Forest, NC- The 1996 Women’s Basketball State Championship banner hanging in Charles George Memorial Arena just got some company, as the Lady braves added another banner to the rafters with a 74-32 running clock victory over East Columbus.

The Lady Braves were hot from the opening jump, starting the game on a 21-6 first-quarter run and never looking back. Braves Nation never had to worry, as Ann Gardner and company had this one in hand for all four quarters.

This article will be updated when the celebration concludes.
