NIGHT OF BASKETBALL

Here are the outcomes....and not much more.

Ellsworth won the boy's freshman game over the Lyon's Lions 44 to 25.
Scoring: Tyler Britton 16, Austin Seitz 8, Cody Barta 8, Matt Froese 6, T.J. Renard 3, Nick Bailey 2, Chase Vopat 1. I think. Don't bet the farm on it.

The boys JV team lost a bunch to Lyons.

I don't know who won the the girls jv game.

Our varsity girls lost 41- 64.

Our boys varsity team won 76 -52. I think all the boys who were suited up got to play, even if just a little bit. The boys were inspired and it showed with the style of ball they played. The same boys played this year as last with the exception of one graduating senior. They were improved in every way. The kids played like a team by feeding other players and not being greedy about ball handling. They made very few mistakes. They have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge about the game in a short period of time. They hustled like they did during MAYB ball. No one loafed and they were all business with their play. They and their parents really like Travis Powell and it shows. They have started the season in upbeat fashion. That is good.
