A win and a loss

The Maple Lake Irish came back to win 58-54 over our B-B-E Jaguars boys' basketball team tonight. It was a one-point game in the final minute, but the Irish (3-4) canned the free throws they needed to get the win.

Here's video from the end of the first half of the girls' basketball game:


The B-B-E Jaguars girls' basketball team won 72-40 over Paynesville Area. After a fairly ragged first half, the Jaguars settled down and expanded on their 33-20 halftime lead. The Bulldogs (0-7) got as close as 35-27 before the Jaguars dropped the hammer on them.
