Sting Place Second in Southwest Shoot Out

Kayla Miranda and the Arizona Sting Grey placed second when they made a trip to El Paso, Texas March 30-April 1 to play in the Southwest Shoot Out.  One of the most exciting games was when they played the El Paso Huskies in the semi finals. 


This strong team with a 6'5" Baylor commit in Kristina Higgins was undefeated in nearly two years of play - until they went against the Sting. The Sting had lost to the Huskies in earlier pool play and was excited for a rematch. It was a tight game, trading the lead up until the last 3 seconds when Kayla stole a pass and made a layup over Higgins to tie the game. The Sting won the game in overtime to move on to the championships. Unfortunately with only a 20 minute rest before the game, the Sting was unable to win the championship. But everyone felt they had already won.
