TULSA, Oklahoma – Midwest City advanced to the 6A girls state championship with a 45-37 victory over Edmond Santa Fe on Friday night.

Richa Jackson scored a game-high 22 points for the Lady Bombers, while Courtney Walker led the Lady Wolves with a 16-point effort.

Midwest City was up by double digits at the half and led by 12 early in the fourth quarter. Edmond Santa Fe tried to make a late push, but the double-digit lead was too much to overcome.

The Lady Bombers return to the Mabee Center on Saturday where they will battle Norman for the 6A girls state title. The game is set to tip off at 2:45 p.m.
