State Championship Predictions

Updated: May 22, 2020



Class 5A State Championship Game

#1 Ouachita vs #2 Benton

Date: March 6th, 2020

Time: 8:00 pm

Location: Burton Coliseum - Lake Charles, LA

Key Players to Watch:

Ouachita

2020 Lafeadria Green

2020 Tia Perry


Benton

2020 Qua Chambers - ULM Signee

2021 Jada Anderson


Prediction: Ouachita wins in a close one.

Third time these two face each other after meeting twice early in the regular season. They split both matchups. While Benton's experienced guard play, led by ULM signee (Chambers) will surely keep them in the game, I think Ouachita Parish's size and depth will edge out a win to bring them their first state championship since 1953.




Class 4A State Championship Game

#1 LaGrange vs #6 Warren Easton

Date: March 7th, 2020

Time: 8:00 pm

Location: Burton Coliseum - Lake Charles, LA

Key Players to Watch:

LaGrange

2020 Nadailyn Carter

2020 Alona Gray

2021 Jeriah Warren

2021 Aasia Sam


Warren Easton

2020 Skylar Davis

2021 Breanna Sutton


Prediction: Lagrange

Coach Mimms has Warren Easton with another deep run. He definitely has made a case for being the best coach in the state for this year's run along with runs made in recent seasons. I'm looking forward to the matchup between two top-10 members of the 2021 class, Breanna Sutton and Jeriah Warren. Although they probably won't guard each other much due to defensive schemes, I am interested in seeing how they both lead their teams on this big stage. Warren Easton is trying to win their 3rd consecutive state championship. Despite the gap in championship experience, I believe Lagrange finds a way to finally win that coveted state championship.
