Cowgirls

We have a list of things going on in Southwest Louisiana and Lake Charles this weekend so take a look and pick your poison.

The 75th Annual Southwest District Livestock Show and Rodeo is scheduled for January 30, 31, and February 1 at Burton Coliseum.

The McNeese Cowboys Basketball Season has come to a close by way of a 85-65 loss to a hot shooting Southeastern team. the game was never really in doubt after the Lions built up a double digit lead in the first half.

You've seen the cowboys in PRCA Rodeos, PBR Bull Ridings and local rodeos giving it all they've got to win their event. If they don't win, there's no paycheck or gold buckle. It's a hard life but I don't know any cowboy or cowgirl who would trade it for any other way of life.

The Cowgirls once again draw the 2nd seed in the NCAA Tournament and travel further this year.

The Cowgirls defeated Stephen F. Austin last night 60-56 to win their second consecutive Southland Conference title. They now move on to the NCAA tournament.

The Cowgirls Basketball team has cause for celebration.  They've won the Southland Conference title.  They won their first ever State Farm Southland Conference Tournament, and now they are headed to the NCAA Championship Tournament.  This is great for Southwest Louisiana , McNeese State University, and of course for this championship team.
