Lady Wildcats belatedly cut down the nets as champs

Members of the Wayland girls’ varsity basketball team won O-K Gold Conference, District and Regional championships this past winter, but never enjoyed the traditional cutting ceremony they bring. So the girls and head coach Wes Hudson did just that at their banquet Wednesday evening outdoors to avoid having to wear the dreaded masks because of Covid-19. They went inside the gym and each team member took turns in taking part in the time-honored activity.
