AHS TIGERS WRAP UP SEASON AS The successful Tiger basketball season led them to the state tournament held in Las Cruces at the Pan American center. A coin toss gave Mayfield the district championship over Alamogordo. Mayfield was automatically placed in the district tournament finals, while Alamo battled NMMT and Artesia before meeting the Tro- jans. Alamogordo won a decisive victory over Mayfield, 90-77, which placed the Tigers in the state tournament. Alamo lost a tough battle, 78-68, to the Carlsbad Cave- men in the first round, and thus concluded the season with 21 wins and seven losses.
