After Christmas, the Lady Bucks made the trip to Lubbock for the Lubbock Caprock Tournament and faced several strong competitors. “This type of tournament is vital to the rest of our season. It gives us the opportunity to play against high-level competition, win or lose, and to get better in every game. It is exactly what you should want for your team as a coach, to play better teams to make you better. The timing of this tournament works out great as we are just coming off a mandatory UIL break, and it helps us get our feet back under us,” said Christopher Virdell, head basketball coach for the Lady Bucks On December 28, Alpine played the Borden County Coyotes. On December 29, they faced the Dimmitt Bobcats and the Happy Cowboys. On December 30, their last game was against the Seymour Panthers. “Every game we played was against high-level competition,” said Virdell.
