After a string of tournament wins last week, the Phelps Lady Knights were named the WIAA Division 5 Regional Champions and will move on to Sectional competition.
Phelps defeated the Tigerton Tigers 48-27 last Tuesday before beating Elcho 43-36 Friday and the No. 1-seeded Marion Mustangs 34-30 Saturday in the Regional Championship.
Nerves were running high during the first quarter of the championship game, but the No. 4-seeded Knights pulled out to an early 10-4 lead.
