The Lady Bulldogs tied for 5th place among 11 schools in the team standings.  Marceline was first with 58 points.  Lawson was second with 51, followed by Brookfield with 34 and Higginsville at 27.  The Trenton and Versailles girls each had 24 points, followed by Centralia, Gallatin, Macon, Lexington, and Carrollton.
