The Baylor girls and McCallie basketball teams are now close enough to literally see the state championship hardware on the sideline, just waiting to be handed out.
Both teams are one win away from playing for state titles, each taking the court at Lipscomb University today in Division II-AA state semifinals.
The Baylor girls (22-7), winners of 11 of their last 13 games, take on St. Benedict (22-6) at 11 a.m. EST, followed by McCallie against defending boys’ state champ Brentwood Academy at 12:30 p.m.
The Baylor/St. Benedict game will feature a matchup of Miss Basketball finalists and future NCAA Division I point guards: the Lady Red Raiders’ Kaleigh Clemons, a Vanderbilt signee who won the Miss Basketball award last year, and Memphis signee Taylor Barnes.
