In their second game in two nights on the home floor, the Jaguars boys' basketball team has a 39-26 lead at halftime over Eden Valley-Watkins. Final score: B-B-E 77, Eden Valley-Watkins 37. My math says that's only 11 second-half points for the Eagles. Crazy! The point total for B-B-E is one point over their current season average.In a game between Pierz and Holdingford, the Pioneers hold a huge 62-15 lead with 11:50 left. Check out the final score below!
More will follow over the weekend.
Up next: a trip into western Douglas County to face sub-section rival Brandon/Evansville on Saturday afternoon. My last check on when the varsity game will tip-off is at 4:00pm at the Brandon High School. The Chargers (4-10, 3-6 Little Eight Conference) just got blasted tonight by Ashby in a 32-point loss.
Two quick notes: (1) Good luck to the B-B-E Dazzlers dance team in their trip to the Section 4A meet at Hawley on Saturday; and (2) an interview by Dave McClurg with Jaguars wrestling coach Coach Vos will be on Smooth Magic 107 FM at 7:20am on Saturday morning.
