The girls welcomed in McGregor. The game between the Jaguars and Mercuries got off to a fast start. But it was McGregor who pushed out to an early 9-4 lead. The Mercuries were up 12-6 but the Jaguars went on a 8-0 scoring run to take over the lead. The teams traded points and the teams were once again tied. But the Jags went on a 19-3 scoring run to end the 1st half with a 35-19 lead.
In the 2nd half, the Jaguars continued to build on their lead, and lead by as much as 29. With the lead they were able to bring in some of their younger players. Hinckley-Finlayson had some good play off the bench and their younger players showed growth. The Jaguars wound up coming away with the victory 61-40. They will play against East Central on Thursday.

The Boys would host Milaca.
These two teams also got out to a fast start. Neither team had an edge over the other, and neither could seemingly build on a lead. Eventually Milaca found a little bit of a rhythm and built a 10 point cushion over Hinckley-Finlayson 36-26 going into halftime. Coming out of half the Jaguars knew they had work to do but the game never felt out of hand for them. The Wolves continued to build off the success they had in the 1st half. But when Milaca started to pull away, the Jags fought back and erased the double digit deficit. Although Hinckley-Finlayson was never able to overcome the Milaca lead, they fought hard and made things difficult for the Wolves. Milaca came out on top 69-55. The Jaguars fall to 4-7 on the season and will play East Central on the road on Friday.
