The Caney Valley High School Academic Team finished their season Saturday as the Class 3A State Runner-Up.  The Trojans were seeded Number 3 in the state behind Wilburton (1) and Silo (2). The team beat Coalgate 340-170, Silo 230-170, and Wilburton 260-170 before having a two-hour bye until the championship game.  Wilburton came back strong to meet Caney Valley in game 6 where they defeated the Trojans 150-230.  This meant that the championship would be decided by a round 7 game which Wilburton won 240-230.  Senior Alex T. led the team with 270 points followed by Junior Dakota J. with 220.  Sophomore Brayden P. added 160 points, and Junior Hunter B. tallied 100 points for the day.

Coach Martha Ward could not be more proud of her team and the way they represented Caney Valley with class and dignity.
