Lions suffered close loss to Crockett
Teague’s Varsity Lions traveled to Crockett where they suffered a close loss to the Bulldogs, due to a weak performance at the freethrow line and a lazy play on defense. Both teams began the competition relatively relaxed on defense. Teague and Crockett established good footing in the first quarter. The Lions established a slight lead with 17 points against the Bulldogs due to good field execution. Crockett trailed not too far behind with 15 points in the quarter, 17-15. Crockett seemed to step up their game on defense, only allowing Teague 4 points in the quarter thanks to shots in the field by freshmen Jehmel Rice and Tylin Randle. Their step-up on offense added some fuel to their offensive fire. The Bulldogs added 13 points to the board, taking the lead from the Lions, 21-28.
