GSL boys' hoops finish second in holiday tourney
After finishing 1-1 in its holiday tournament last week, the Glencoe-Silver Lake boys’ basketball team entered the new year with an even 4-4 record.
The Panthers finished second in its four-team tourney, held Dec. 27-28, after defeating Lester Prairie in the opening round before falling well short of Holy Family Catholic in the title game.
GSL opened the mid-week tournament last Wednesday against the neighboring Bulldogs.
The two teams engaged in a close battle in the first half, with the Panthers taking a 39-34 lead into the halftime locker room.
After the break, however, GSL took it to the visitors, outscoring Lester Prairie 33-22 over the final 18 minutes en route to a 72-56 victory.
