Duncanville Pantherettes Defeat Undefeated Cypress Creek, Wins 11th State Title in Program History

SAN ANTONIO – It started low, quiet enough to blend in with the ambient noise, but loud enough to recognize. “D-Ville,” a few chanted as the end drew near and the clock ticked away. Soon, more and more joined, turning the murmur into a resounding echo inside the Alamodome.

The chant’s intention was celebration, but it also sent a message: after a brief hiatus, Duncanville was back.

On Saturday, for the 11th time in school history, Duncanville won the girls state basketball championship, beating previously undefeated Cypress Creek 63-47 in the 6A title game. It was Duncanville’s 28th win in a row.
