Metcalfe beats Lakers by 11

In Feb. 14-20 Issue

Coach Willie Feldhaus and his 8-12 Mighty Lakers hosted 18-4 Metcalfe County, a district foe, last Friday at Laker Gym and came up short handed as the Lakers were beaten, 80-69.

The Lakers fell behind by a large margin early on and were never able to fully recover from a 31-12 first quarter Hornet run.

Russell County and Metcalfe both scored 18 second quarter points and 17 third quarter points, respectively.

The Lakers made a run at the Hornets in the final quarter, outscoring Metcalfe 22-14 but it was not enough to pull through with the victory.

Seven Lakers scored in the loss, led by Robbie Bell’s 21 points and Senior Timmy Coffey’s 19. Bryon Ellis also scored double figures with 10 points. Lucas Justice scored eight for the Lakers while Bryson McFall scored five points. Adam Justice had four points for the Lakers while Kyle Burchett had two points in the loss.

Metcalfe County had six players score with three, White, Wolf and Shively scoring 20-plus for the Hornets.

The Hornets have been a dominant team all season and the big run they showcased in the game’s first quarter allowed them to get the victory after staving off a Laker comeback attempt.
