The Blue Jays lost a tough game against Lee's Summit North by the score of 65-55 in Cokely Fieldhouse Friday night. It was a temendous atmosphere for the 'White Out' Courtwarming game but the Jays didn't play their best basketball and now stand at 16-5 on the season.
"They were just tougher than us at both ends of the floor. We struggled to find our sequence on offense and they did a nice job of attacking the rim. Some shots we normally make didn't fall and we couldn't keep them out of the paint or off the free throw line. It's difficult to win a game when your opponent shoots 33 more free throws that you do," remarked Coach Stirtz. LSN shot 40 free throws while the Jays shot 7.
Liberty was led in scoring by Denton Koon with 21 points and Marshon Norfleet with 10.
The Jays look to bounce back with a road game to St Joe Central on Tuesday before completing their home schedule against Lee's Summit on Friday.
"It's going to be very important that we stay mature and disciplined. We must understand there's a lot of season left and the post-season is always the most exciting part of the journey."
