The Girls and Boys Sr. Basketball Teams have punched their ticket to the 4A State Tournament!
The tournament will be held from Tuesday, February 27th, to Saturday, March 2nd, in Farmington, AR at Cardinal Arena (12329 North Highway 170, Farmington). Our arena is one of the best facilities in the state, with plenty of parking, and it will accommodate 2400 spectators.

Evolv Express relies on cutting-edge sensor technology to differentiate between weapons and everyday objects. However, we kindly request that you avoid carrying items such as umbrellas, stadium seats, laptops, and notebooks with metal binders into the arena to help us expedite the screening process.
