Prairie Grove junior Lacey Beeks pulls up to take a jumper against Gentry. Beeks scored 19 points as the Lady Tigers defeated Gentry, 62-27, on Friday.

The Prairie Grove Tigers scored the first 14 points of the game and never looked back in a 65-45 win over Gentry in 4A-1 Conference action Friday night.

GIRLS

Prairie Grove 62, Gentry 27

In the girl’s game, Prairie Grove maintained its perfect record as Lacey Beeks scored a season-high 22 points.

Prairie Grove has two more games to complete its regular season, but already clinched the 4A-1 Conference championship. Whether the team will share that championship depends on what Farmington and Prairie Grove do this next week.

“The best feeling is we’re automatically in regionals,” said Kevin Froud, Prairie Grove girls basketball coach.

Gentry (8-13, 2-9): Hammond 7, Olds 7, Page 4, Arnold 4, Flesner 2, Thomas 2, Cripps 1.
