Barr-Reeve beats Bloomington South
Last night saw a highly anticipated battle between 1A Barr-Reeve and 4A Bloomington South. Thanks to a couple of good performances from Barr-Reeve’s Curt Hopf Curt Hopf 6'8" | PF Barr-Reeve | 2021 State IN (16 pts) and Hagen Knepp Hagen Knepp 6'4" | SF Barr-Reeve | 2022 State IN (12 pts), the Vikings were able to defeat the Panthers, 41-36. South’s stud forward Joseph Bomba Joseph Bomba 6'4" | SF Bloomington South | 2021 State IN led his team with 27 points and played very well as normal. This was a big win for Barr-Reeve as they have had some delay with getting their season started. On the other end, though this may be a tough loss for South, they do have a chance to bounce back this Friday against Southport.
Leo beats Bishop Luers
In a pretty good game, Leo was able to beat Bishop Luers, 57-51. This was Luers first game of the season and though they fought hard and had a great performance from Naylon Thompson Naylon Thompson 6'5" | PG Bishop Luers | 2021 State IN (17 pts, 8 rbs), they just did not have enough fire power to snag the road win against the undefeated Leo squad. Leo was led in scoring by Blake Davison Blake Davison 6'0" | PG Leo | 2021 State IN (15 pts) and Ayden Ruble Ayden Ruble 6'2" | SG Leo | 2022 State IN (11 pts). Leo has been on an absolute roll to start the season and have played some really good basketball. Luers put up a big fight but will have to have a short memory of this game as they will travel to Fort Wayne Canterbury this Saturday for their second game of the season.
Woodlan survives Angola
In a very close, back-and-forth battle, Woodlan was able to survive Angola, 54-53. Joe Reidy Joe Reidy 6'7" | SF Woodlan | 2022 State IN was the star of the game for Woodlan here as he dropped an impressive 32 points and scored the last few buckets for Woodlan down the stretch. Angola’s Brian Parrish had himself a huge performance dropping 20 points with 18 of those coming from 6 triples. With this win, Woodlan moves to 2-0 and will face New Haven on Wednesday. Angola moves to 1-3 and will face Garrett on Friday.
