Coach Thoughts 

Wayne Perry, Sand Creek: “We really struggled against their ball pressure. We missed six lay ups in the first half, you can’t do that against a good team. Credit to Arbor Prep, they shot the ball well today. That’s why they are the No. 1 in the state.”

Portland St. Patrick 66, Lenawee Christian 56

LCS was down two players tonight due to injuries but battled St. Patrick on the road.

Avery Sluss had four first quarter 3-pointers and five for the game to keep LCS in the game.
