Basketball Hits The Road To Livingston For Afternoon Games Today

The Cannon County Lionettes are going to have to fix their ball handling issues if they want to survive past the first round of the upcoming District Tournament.  The Lionettes handed the ball back to Page High School during Senior Night in Woodbury on 19 different occasions and as anyone would expect with that high of a turnover ratio, the Lionettes lost their last regular season game in front of the home crowd 45-41.  Maleah Scott led all scorers with 22 points for Cannon County.
The Cannon County Lions have to find consistency.  One night after blowing out Dekalb County, the Lions couldn’t answer the Patriots attack of three point shots as the team from Franklin claimed a 77-60 win over Cannon County.  Austin Martin put the entire Lion team on his back scoring wise as he was the only player in double figures with 23 points.  Three players on the Page side scored in double figures including Stewart Ringstaff who scored all 18 of his points by hitting three point shots which opened the sizeable lead for Page.
Today it’s back to District 8-AA basketball as the teams will travel to Livingston for the last regular season game.  Tipoff is set for 2:00.  You can hear the games live on AM-1540, FM 107.9 WBRY and streaming live through wbry.com.
