boys lose twice, girls take 2nd at CV Tourney
The Patriot boys from Summit found the going rough last weekend, as
they dropped both of their games at Clearwater Valley's Christmas Tournament,
dropping a 47 to 45 overtime loss to Deary in the consolation round, after

pressing host CV in the championship round, resulting in a 51 to 23 loss,
only the Patriots second loss of the season. . . .
