After
dropping a pair of games in Wednesday morning action in the first
day of the 41st Annual Martin Lions Club Christmas
Tournament at Westview High School, both the Lady Lions and Lions
moved into the losers’ bracket on Thursday morning.
The
Lady Lions struggles continued into the second day of the tournament
as Germantown jumped out to an early lead then held off a late
Dresden rally to take a 53-48 win. In boys action, Dresden fell
73-56.

Despite
a strong start by the Lions, the Wolves were able to put some
distance between them and their opposition with a 10-0 run to end
the first frame and an 11-0 run to open the second frame.

Though the Westview girls took the Lion's Club
Invitational Christmas Tournament Championship, the Chargers, on the
other hand, came up second place against last year's defending Class
A state champions.
Paired up against Memphis Mitchell in the final
girls' game of the tournament, the game stayed a close one for the
first half until the Lady Chargers left the Lady Tigers behind in
the second.

For the last game of the evening and for the
tournament, the Westview Chargers and the Middleton Tigers both made
it to the top to go up against each other, but the WHS boys were
unable to pull off a win to take the Boys' Championship Friday.
