DuQuoin played Pinckneyville District #50, and was able to win a very close game 25-21. DuQuoin is now 2-0 in the tournament and 4-1 overall.

Jacqueline Harsy led Du Quoin with 8 points, Carissa Graham 5, Marisa Ferguson 4, Jessica Harsy 4, Amanda Atteberry 2.
Stein finished with 8 points for Dist. #204, Yates 7, Jones, Griffin, Goldman each had 2.
