Although Hillsboro put an end to the Central Valley’s girl’s basketball season at the District 3 tournament last Tuesday, the boys still have two games left before districts next Friday. They were scheduled to play the Hatton-Northwood Thunder on Thursday and Northern Cass on Friday, two teams the Valiants have not played yet this season.
The boys are still striving to put an end to their four-game losing streak, most recently having lost to Thompson last Tuesday by 30 points. Jason Novacek, usually a double-digit scorer, was held to only 6 points in the game. Central Valley’s point leader was Aaron Delvo with 13. Thompson was led by Casey Nelson with 21. The first time the Valiants played Thompson back in January the boys lost by 19 points. Final score: Thompson 73, Central Valley 43.
