LAKEVILLE, IN. - It's a basketball night in Lakeville! LaVille Lady Hoops caps off a weekend doubleheader against Logansport at Cox Gymnasium. The junior varsity game is scheduled to tip at 6 p.m., with the varsity game to follow Coach Nicholas Amor's Lancer squad is 8-2 overall and coming off a 54-27 victory at Winamac on December 9. Brooke Edison came off the bench to score a career-high 18 points to lead LHS. Heaylyn Kwiatkowski had 11 points and Lucy Sherk eight. After Amor's club took a 20-19 halftime lead, his team clamped down defensively. The Lakeville guests allowed Winamac just nine points in the second half, while erupting for 34 points to pull away. At one point, LaVille outscored WHS 17-2 sparked by active hands, ball pressure and a full court defense that turned steals into points.
