Big Red Recap: It was another busy winter sports weekend as January came to an end and we head into February and the home stretch of the winter sports season. The JV and Varsity boys basketball teams kept their busy stretch going with another double weekend hosting Monroeville on Friday and Lucas on Saturday. Both the JV and Varsity teams went 1-1 on the weekend and snapped losing streaks with wins over Lucas on Saturday night. Both teams lost to Monroeville on Friday before bouncing back with wins over the Cubs on Saturday night. The Big Red varsity battled through another tough shooting and offensive night playing their 6th game in a 9 day stretch. They jumped out to an early lead and would hold a small lead for much of the game before Lucas played a strong 4th quarter and took the lead away from the Big Red. After getting some key stops late in the 4th quarter the Big Red were able to tie the game at 41 and had the ball for the final shot to win it but it did not fall forcing the game to overtime. The overtime period was all Big Red from start to finish as they would outscore the Cubs 13-2 pulling away for the 54-43 non-conference win. After the weekend the Big Red are now 9-10 overall and 5-6 in conference play and will get some much needed rest before hosting New London on Thursday. The MS wrestling team was in Friday night action wrapping up their season at the conference tournament at Monroeville. Jayce Rogers led the way for the Big Red earning a 1st place and conference championship while Levi Foley and Clayton Tabor both earned runner up honors. Scott Schriner added a 3rd place finish while Bentley Meade took 5th place. We are proud of our MS wrestling team for all of their hard work this season! Both the 7th and 8th grade boys basketball teams were in tournament action on Saturday morning in the 1st rounds of their respective conference tournaments. The 7th grade took a tough loss to St. Paul 21-16 while the 8th grade suffered a tough loss to Monroeville 33-28 as they both saw their seasons come to an end. We are also proud of our Big Red 7th and 8th grade boys basketball teams for all of their hard work this season! The Varsity girls basketball team was also in action on Saturday night as they traveled to Crestview and took on the Cougars. After trailing 10-2 at the end of the 1st quarter the Lady Big Red would slowly claw their way back into the game closing the deficit to 18-12 at the half and 25-21 after the 3rd quarter. They would take a lead early in the 4th quarter before Crestview answered with a late run to eventually pull away for a 36-28 win over the Big Red. The Lady Big Red drop to 5-14 overall and 4-9 in conference play. They will be back in action tomorrow at Wynford.
