Erica Ousley leads Fairley to MIAA Class AA girls title

Trezevant’s girls thought they might have a couple of matchup surprises for the Fairley juggernaut Thursday in the MIAA Class AA championship at Wooddale. But like so many teams that have tried before them, the Bears discovered they had no match for Bulldogs senior Erica Ousley.

Ousley scored 25 points, including two big bursts in the first and third quarters, as Fairley (24-3) took home its first city championship in its first season as a AA team with a, 56-49, triumph over Trezevant at Wooddale.

“Right now I can’t tell you how good this feels,” said Ousley as she held the game MVP plaque over her championship T-shirt. “We never got one of these before.”
