In the past week, the Tigers played their lasts two regular season games. On Friday, February 13th, the DeKalb High School boys played against Union Star, and on Thursday, February 19th, they played against Mound City. The boys put up a great effort in both games but unfortunately fell short of the wins. In Friday’s game, the boys fell to Union Star 56 to 62. The boys put forth a great effort and played a great game. They did great at “Attacking the hoop,” says Coach Aaron Matthews. The Mound City game ended with the final score being 51 to 70. Considering that the team only has six players, they did well with what they could do. Although team member Cooper Wachtel states that, “We can work on our passing.” The boys play next on February 24th, starting at 5 pm at North Andrew. Thisgame will kick off the District Tournament. Show up to support your friends as they take control of the court!
