Varsity Basketball set to Play Paint Rock
The Lady Falcons will enter Tuesday's game in Paint Rock with one goal in mind- win and stay in the hunt for a playoff spot. With an impressive victory Friday night against Richland Springs, Veribest finds itself squarely in the playoff race with a 2-3 district mark. A win will place the Lady Falcons in the third position in district, while a loss could slide the team to fifth place. Currently, Rochelle stands alone in first place, with Eden one game behind the Lady Hornets. Veribest will look for the continued solid play of post Haley Humble, who is averaging double digits in scoring during district competition, and post Emily Lankford, who played her best game against Richland Springs.
The Falcons upset Richland Springs Friday night to take over the second spot in district play behind Eden. In a one point thriller, Veribest held on to the tenuous lead by controlling the boards. Camron Flavel had his best game of the season, scoring 12 points and orchestrating the Falcon attack. Clint Holik also provided a much-needed spark, while Cheyenne Black and Jarret Jones were solid contributors. Black has the distinction of leading the team in scoring and rebounds for the season. While not a must-win game, a win in Paint Rock would help solidify the playoff chances of Veribest.
Take the short drive and support the varsity teams as they take on the Indians. Game time is at 6:30 for the girls, with the boys' contest following directly after the conclusion of that game.
