“It was a good experience for the kids,” Rogers said. “We should have won Saturday, but that team was very athletic and quick.”
Rogers also said guard Jalen Lewis got some good looks from the coaching staff at Cleveland State University.
* Not to look ahead, but let’s do it anyway.
Currently tied with 8-1 records in the Mason Dixon Christian Conference boys race, Broadfording and Heritage Academy are on target to decide the regular-season title in their second meeting of the year on Feb. 8.
In their first meeting on Jan. 15, Heritage eked out a 62-61 victory over the Lions.
Heading into Friday night’s games, North Hagerstown holds the Antietam lead at 9-2 while South Hagerstown is 7-2. The Hubs have three games left in conference play, while the Rebels have five yet to play, along with non-conference challenges against Oakdale and Linganore.
St. Maria Goretti is in a ‘must-win’ situation the rest of the way in the Baltimore Catholic League if the Gaels hope to get a home game in the tournament quarterfinals. Goretti’s hopes to climb into fourth place were tarnished by Archbishop Spalding in a 61-54 loss Wednesday. Spalding currently occupies that spot with a 7-3 record, while the Gaels are 5-6.
Goretti plays at Mount Carmel Friday night and hopes for some help from St. Frances, which plays Spalding. On Sunday, Spalding comes to the Gael Center.
