Daniels not only was named the Farmers and Merchant Lady Jays Player of the Game, but was also announced as Homecoming queen.

The Lady Antlers built up a 14-3 first quarter lead and a 30-14 halftime lead.

Deer Creek improves to 13-3 and Guthrie falls to 4-12. Deer Creek will play in the conference championship game next week in Guthrie.
