Boys C Squad Hoopsters Start Out Strong


The Lester Prairie-Holy Trinity Boys “C Squad” sits with a 5-1 record in the early going of the winter season.  That record will carry through to the new year as they will sit through a three-week break during this holiday season.

While the team made up of mostly 9th graders has a nice record, they have played in many close games thus far.  The season started out with a non-conference road win over Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City 52-34, and then the boys rallied for three straight close wins over Norwood-Young America, Trinity, and New Life Academy.  The squad’s lone loss was a 24-21 battle at Southwest Christian.  LPHT will get a chance for payback against SWC on February 1st at Lester Prairie.
Led by a trio of guards, and some hot shooting, the team is averaging almost 45 points per game, with Tyler Scheevel (15.3 ppg), Parker Bayerl (8.7), and Dylan Ruzicka (7.2) leading the way.  Both Trevor Schuette and Matt Fasching have held down opposing big men with a nice presence in the lane.  Speedster Nathaniel Hausladen has added good minutes while battling a series of early season injuries and ailments, and 8th grader Evan Lee adds a spark to the lineup and will be used more as the year progresses.  The C team will return to action on January 7th at Cedar Mountain-Comfrey, and returns home on January 12th vs. Legacy Christain at 4:45.
