BASKETBALL SEASON ENDS WITH DISTRICTS BY JAXON HARRIS The boys and girls De Kalb basketball teams played in their district games on Saturday the 19th for the girls and Monday the 21st for the boys. The girls played against Union Star, winning the game by 24 points and the boys against St. Joseph Christian lost by 24 points . The De Kalb boys basketball team had a great game against St. Joseph Christian. They had a good first half, but they didn't keep their momentum and it cost them the game. Player Rawley Mydland stated that “we played good until halftime, and then we let them go and couldn’t get back to how we were going.” Coach Wildhaber claims that “our boys played really well in our district game and that was a good end to our season.” The De Kalb girls basketball team played against Union Star in the first game. They lost to a tough Stanberry basketball team with a great winning lead of 24 points in the first game and a loss in the second one by 10 points, resulting in the girls finishing their season. Player Gracie Hanshaw claims “we gave over some turnovers that we shouldn't have, we should have finished the game like we started it." The boys team ended the season with a 5-17 record, and the girls with a season record of 18-7.
