On Saturday, the 2023 Mingua Beef Jerky Girls’ Sweet 16 Tournament semifinals took place inside Rupp Arena with a shot at the Kentucky state championship on the line.

SHA was able to sneak away with the win to make its third consecutive title game.
Shortly after, McCracken County and Henderson County went head-to-head in a matchup that wasn’t nearly as close. McCracken County led from the onset and had no trouble locking up its berth in the championship game set for Saturday evening.
