Senior Marques Smith takes a deep breath as he prepares to shoot a free throw. Smith felt pressured in the moment because the team missed several free throws earlier in the game.

On the evening of Wednesday, December 7, the boy’s varsity basketball team faced off against our historic rivals, the Spring Valley Vikings. Senior Zackery Watkins (14 points & 10 rebounds) and junior Jaylen Tillman (12 points & 7 rebounds) led the team with their performances. The Cavaliers fell to the Vikings with a score of 50-46, and their record is now 3-2.
