The Elmira High School girls and boys basketball teams traveled to Sweet Home on Wednesday to play against the Huskies, marking their first non-league game of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Falcons’ boys varsity team lost 26-44, junior varsity lost 22-23 and JV2 won big. The varsity girls lost 15-39, and the JV girls pulled out a win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the boys varsity game, junior Braiden Hansen was the lead scorer with six points, and senior Troy Anderson stood out with 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We played hard on defense and we moved the ball well, but our shots didn’t fall. It was our first game, and this team has a lot of potential,” boys varsity assistant coach Paul Ossowski said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The girls and boys teams will play again Friday against Pleasant Hill in their first home game. The boys varsity game is scheduled to start at 7:15 p.m., JV boys at 4:15 p.m. and JV2 at 5:45 p.m. The girls varsity game will start at 5:45 p.m. and the JV girls at 4:15 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
