BIRMINGHAM − Prattville Christian girls basketball defeated Priceville 76-59 Friday for the AHSAA 4A state championship, its third consecutive title.
PCA led by 15 points late, but Priceville caused a handful of turnovers and caught a rhythm on 3-pointers to come within two points midway through the second quarter.
