The Fredonia Yellow Jackets look to punch their ticket to the sub state championship game, matching up with the Spartans of Wichita Collegiate.

 

Fredonia has rattled off 10 wins in their last 12 games, including a 15-point victory over Bluestem in the quarterfinals.

 

A pair of key leaders for the Yellow Jackets are guards Emmitt Couch and Ashton O'Neill. Head coach Dee Barnett says Couch is one of the best defenders around.

 

O'Neill played primarily point guard last season, but has moved to more of a shooting guard role this year, with the emergence of Kamden Barnett. Barnett says O'Neill brings great versatility to the offense.

 

Fredonia is 14-7 after a 5-6 start to the season. The Spartans are 15-5, coming off a win over Douglass in the quarterfinals.
