Recreational Spectacles — A New Way to Look at Sports in the Ozarks

Ho-hum, just another pair of 30-plus pont games for Miller senior and future Missouri State Lady Bear Hannah Wilkerson.

After wins over Golden City and Greenfield last week, Wilkerson continues her pace to obliterate Missouri’s career scoring record. This is Week No. 2 of the HWW and if you missed the initial installment, click here to get her back story.

But for now, all you need to know is she is well on her way to becoming the top scorer in Missouri history.

If you haven’t yet seen her play and are a Mediacom subscriber, replays of last night’s game with Strafford will be shown on Mediacom Connections Channel 22 at 4:30 p.m. today and Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Thursday.

• Fair Grove, 38 points
• Harrison (Ark.), 39 points
