The boys varsity basketball team finished up league play Thursday night against LCS. While falling short of victory the team executed very well and gave a very strong performance. Final score landed at 42-56, with the foul game being played at the end the Aggies only allowed 3 buckets in the 4th quarter aside from free throws. Leading the score was Gavin Eack with 12 points, shooting an outstanding 71% , followed by Andon Sutherland and Grady Hazelwood with 6 each. Hazelwood also led rebounds with 7. The game was not about the scoring though. The Aggies out-rebounded LCS by 10 team rebounds, a great performance on the glass. The Aggies' defense was extremely well executed and created turnovers consistently through the night. A total team effort on the defensive side is the biggest story of the night with every member on the floor giving their 1/5th to the team.
Tonight's home high school girls basketball game will tip off at 5:00 as the JV team takes on the Jackson Patriots followed by the varsity game vs. North Adams. Good luck and go Aggies!
