The freshmen Pirates and junior varsity Lady Pirates combined to go 5-0 over the weekend as the boys played in Mount Vernon while the girls were in Daingerfield.
The Lady Pirates used a balanced scoring attack to pick up a win in their first game at Daingerfield, downing Redwater, 24-11. Pittsburg led 6-2 after one quarter of play before using an 8-0, second-quarter run to push the Lady Pirate lead to 14-2 at the half. The second half was a closer battle but the Lady Pirates outscored the Lady Dragons 10-9 over the final two periods to earn a 13-point win.
Taylor Leonard led the way for the Lady Pirates with five points in the win while Branna Attaway scored four, Teandra Duffey had three points and Taylor Porter, Bree Morris, Madison Busch, Jackie Roman, Madison Toney and Keilah Rogers-Bates each scored two points.
