Trojans drop close road battle

While it may not have resulted in a win last week, the Whitehall High School boys basketball team showed they are close to a breakthrough game. The Trojans lost two close games last week the first a 47-40 setback Thursday at Anaconda and a heart-breaking 50-47 overtime loss Friday at rival Boulder.

Tied at 16 at the half, Whitehall (1-11, 0-6 5B) would come out of the break strong Friday outscoring the Panthers 14-6 to take a 30-22 lead into the final quarter. Jefferson would answer with a furious late minute comeback to send the game to overtime where they outscored the Trojans 10-7.
