8th Grade Boys Basketball 4-0

Coach Berke's Recap- The 8th grade boys’ basketball team improved their record to 4-0 last Tuesday night after a win over Lewis Central. The Rams did an excellent job of taking care of the ball, only committing 6 turnovers on the night.  That combined with a balanced scoring attack were two keys to the victory.

Last night the girls basketball team played their home opener. Glenwood hosted Thomas Jefferson to kick off the winter sports season in Glenwood. The young Rams fell 56-39. The girls played a tough game but the Yellow Jackets were too much in the fourth quarter and pulled away from the Rams. This is a young team and the girls showed great progress through out the game. Keep it up ladies, go Rams!

Coach Berke's Recap- Tough defense and patience on offense was the key to last night’s victory in Harlan by the 8th grade boys.  In a back and forth battle, the Rams came out on top, 50-41.  Due to a situation beyond our control, there are no official scoring stats available.  All of the boys played hard and the coaching staff is very proud and excited with the victory.
