MOBILE — Selma shot just 20 percent from the floor and was outscored 13-0 in the third quarter, falling to No. 3 LeFlore 42-22 at the Class 5A girls’ regional tournament Wednesday.

The Saints, who were led by Jonishia Jackson’s 8 points, trailed 17-9 at halftime before being shut out in the third quarter against LeFlore’s 1-1-3 zone. Selma was 2-of-16 from the 3-point line for the game and 4-of-19 from the foul line.

“We didn’t play our basketball,” Harris said. “That’s probably the worst game we’ve had.”
