Middleton Girls Win Fourth District Tournament in Four Years

The Middleton Lady Tigers defeated Trinity Christian 58-51 on February 20 to win their fourth district 15A tournament in a row and run their undefeated record in the tournament to nine games.
Middleton’s last loss in district tournament play came against Riverside, 47-33, on February 18, 2013.
Leading the way for Middleton was junior guard Sequoia Warren with 21 points in the final. Warren was named the MVP of the tournament and was joined on the all-tournament team by Akirra Polk and Sarah Franklin.
Making the all-district regular season team were Warren, Chelsey Perry, and Cherelle Jones.
Middleton will open region play at home against the Memphis Business Academy on February 24. The region championship will continue at Jackson Christian, unless 15A sweeps the regional round. In that case, Middleton would host the regional tournament.
