Both the Pirates boys’ basketball team and the Lady

so far during this still young basketball season.
The boys basketball team fell to Richmond 69-58 to open
its season. Despite leading for most of the game, the
Pirates fell behind late in the ball game and could never
catch up. Leading scorers included starters senior Mitch
Black, juniors Bobby Neill and Kyle Richter, and freshman
Zo Riley.

include Hogan, on Dec. 7, at home, St. Pius, on Dec. 11,
away, Oak Grove, on Dec. 14, at home, and West Platte,
on Dec. 17, away. All games, with exception to the Oak
Grove game, begin at 5 p.m. The Oak Grove game is scheduled
to begin at 6 p.m.
The girls’ team opened its season by falling to
Pleasant Hill.
Their upcoming games include St. Pius, on Dec. 6, away;
West Platte, on Dec. 11, away; Odessa, on Dec. 17, at
home; and LeBlond, on Dec. 19, also at home.
The St. Pius and LeBlond games start at 5 p.m. and the
