On Tuesday night, the Cascade Lady Champions officially tipped off the 2025-2026 season on the road at Franklin County. Despite a hard-fought effort throughout all four quarters, the Lady Champions came up shy, falling 45-42 to the Rebelettes.
Senior Kaegan Young scored her career 1,000th point for Cascade to lead the way as part of her 20-point performance.
Cascade and Franklin County ended the first frame, deadlocked at 12, before the Lady Champs pulled ahead to a 21-19 halftime lead.
Cascade continued to sit in the driver’s seat into the third quarter, outscoring the hosts 12-10 for a 33-29 lead after three periods.
But Franklin County’s Kenzie Arnold spearheaded a 16-point fourth-quarter rally with 10 points in the final frame to help lead the comeback bid.

A furious fourth-quarter rally ultimately wasn’t enough for the Community Viqueens to overcome on Tuesday night as the Purple and Gold fell 47-42 at Hickman County to open the 2025-2026 season.
Throughout the first half, there wasn’t a massive degree of separation between the two teams.
The hosts clung to a 9-8 lead after the first period and led just 22-17 at the half.
Still, Community struggled to consistently score throughout the first half.
In the third period, Hickman County relied on a barrage of 3-pointers and went on a 19-10 run to pull ahead by 41-27.
Alyssa White provided the bulk of the offense for the Purple and Gold in the quarter, scoring eight of the team’s 10 points.
Despite trailing by 14 entering the final period, Community was able to slow the game down and work its way to the line where the Viqueens cashed in on 8-of-12 attempts as part of a 15-point rally.
And defensively, Community held Hickman County to just six points, including two field goals.
Although able to rally, the early deficit was more than Community was able to overcome on Tuesday.
Anna Haskins and White combined for 30 points to lead the Viqueens, with White scoring a team-best 16 points.
Community returns home on Friday and will open its home slate against Santa Fe.

Hickman Co. 76, Community 41
Despite a valiant effort by Charlie Haskins, who led Community with 19 points in the 2025-2026 season opener, offense was otherwise tough to come by as the Viikings fell at Hickman County, 76-41.
Hickman County jumped out to a 17-10 lead after the first quarter and went on to stretch the lead to 34-18 by the half.
Although Community was able to find some consistency after the break and post a 16-point effort in the third, the hosts wouldn’t be denied and tacked on 28 more to put the game out of reach.
In total, Hickman County drilled 11 3-pointers and put three players in double figures, with two more knocking on the door.
Community’s Josh Powers also hit double figures in the scoring column and finished with 10 points.
The Vikings will return home on Friday and host Santa Fe at 7:30 p.m.
