SPRINGDALE — Vic Rimmer said earlier this season he saw no reason to shy away from top competition.
The Shiloh Christian girls coach said that despite the Lady Saints having graduated last season’s top scorer and rebounder, Megan Herbert.
Well, after some early season success, Shiloh has three more tough nonconference tests this week when it hosts the Shiloh Shootout, beginning today. Four teams are in the event, including 5A-West Conference members Greenwood and Siloam Springs, who Shiloh faces at 7:30 p.m. today.
The matchup will pit last season’s Class 4A champions, Shiloh, against last season’s Class 5A state runners-up, the Lady Panthers. Shiloh will then take on Greenwood on Tuesday before facing Tulsa (Okla.) Central on Wednesday.
