Big Red Recap: It was more basketball for the Big Red on Tuesday night as the MS boys teams as well as the JV and Varsity boys were all in action. The MS teams hosted Western Reserve to wrap up their regular seasons and both of the 7th and 8th grade teams lost nail biters by one point to the Roughriders. The 7th grade ends the regular season with a 3-12 record while the 8th grade finishes at 6-9. Both teams will head into their respective conference tournaments on Saturday. The JV and Varsity boys traveled to Wynford for their 2nd road non-conference game in as many nights and both came away with tough losses to the Royals. The varsity again trailed for most of the game but battled and just could not get over the hump and grab a lead. Wynford pulled away during the 4th quarter for the 63-49 win as the Big Red fall back to 8-9 on the season. They will get a much needed couple days off before being back in action on Friday hosting Monroeville.

Athletic News! Big Red Recap: It was a busy Monday night of basketball action for the Big Red as both the HS girls and boys teams were in action along with the MS boys. Unfortunately it turned out to be a rough night for all teams as the Big Red got swept across the board. The MS boys hosted Mapleton and both the 7th and 8th grade teams lost close tough games to the Mounties. They will look to bounce back as they are right back in action tonight again at home hosting Western Reserve. The JV and Varsity boys traveled to Crestline for a non-conference matchup with the Bulldogs rescheduled from last week and both lost tough games. After coming off of the big weekend and winning three in a row the varsity struggled to keep the positive momentum and would trail the Bulldogs from start to finish. They did cut the lead to one point going into the 4th quarter but Crestline was able to make enough plays and pulled away for the 48-40 win over the Big Red. The loss drops the Big Red back to .500 on the season at 8-8 overall and they will continue their busy schedule tonight back on the road at Wynford. The JV and Varsity girls hosted Western Reserve as both teams lost to the Roughriders. The varsity game was again a low scoring physical battle as was the case when the two teams matched up last time at Western. This time the Lady Big Red could not overcome the tough defense and poor shooting night as they lost by a 27-17 final score. They drop to 5-12 overall and 4-7 in conference play and will be back in action on Thursday at New London.
