The lions boys basketball team took two tough losses over the weekend.
Friday night the Lions lost to Western Brown by a score of 75-68. The lions had a 25-17 lead early in the second quarter, but an aggressive press forced the Lions into 8 straight turnovers which led to a 16-0 Western Brown run. The Lions did have four players in double figures; Jake Bostic led all scorers with 21 points, Steven Binder had 14 points, Will Shoemaker and Dylan Phillips both had 10 points.
Saturday night the Lions lost to Goshen by a final score of 69-59. The lions gave up a 12-0 run to start the 3rd quarter and played catch up the entire second half. We cut it down to 4 with a minute left, but gave up two transition baskets which ended the comeback attempt. Jake Bostic led all scorers with 24 points. Steven Binder had 9 points.
