The Jaguars boys basketball team improved to 4-1 overall. The Blackjacks dipped below .500 to sit at 2-3 overall. Using suffocating full court pressure, the Jaguars went nine deep during the first half and kept the pressure on the whole game. Their second-half defense in the last two games has been a thing of beauty.
After being tied at 30-all at halftime, the Jaguars outscored the Blackjacks 32-16 in the second half. For the game, they shot a very solid 56% inside the 3-point line, but went 5-of-20 behind the arc.
On Friday night, the Jaguars girls basketball team travels to Rockford for their 2nd Central Minnesota Conference game of the season. They are 3-1 overall and 1-0 in the CMC.
