ORANGE CITY — Gehlen Catholic can slice another make-up from their 2016-2017 basketball season after traveling to Orange City Thursday night to make-up a December 16th War Eagle Conference doubleheader with Unity Christian. The Gehlen Catholic boys saw their 8-game winning streak end with a 64-52 setback at the hands of the Knights. Unity Christian went ahead by six at halftime after the two teams battled back-and-forth through much of the first two quarters. The Knights never trailed in the second half, using a trapping pressure defense to hold the Jays off over the final two quarters. The lead reached 17 with 4:17 to play. Brandon Visser came off the bench to lead a balanced Unity scoring attack with 15 while Mason Post added 13, Luke Nieuwendorp 12 and Sam Byker 10. Cooper Davis had 20 points for Gehlen Catholic with Cole Wiltgen and Alec Langel adding 12 each. Gehlen falls to 10-and-4 for the season and 5-and-2 in the W-E-C. Unity Christian improves to 8-and-7 with a 5-and-1 league mark.
Unity Christian maintained their War Eagle Conference lead, improving their conference mark to 6-and-0 and their season mark to 10-and-5, with an 82-33 romp over the Gehlen Catholic girls Thursday night. The Lady Knights scored the first nine points of the game and led 22-3 seven minutes into the game. The lead grew to 46-14 by halftime and the continuous clock ran for most of the second half. Jori Bronner led the defending 2A State champions with 23 points, Josie Blankenspoor added 21 and Cori Franken had 10 off the bench. Katelyn Langel led Gehlen Catholic with 12 and Sydney Livermore added 10 points. The Lady Jays fall to 2-and-13 for the season and 2-and-5 in the W-E-C.

ESTHERVILLE — The Le Mars girls earned their sixth straight win to stay in contention for the Lakes Conference title, beating Estherville/Lincoln Central 62-49 Friday night in Estherville. It was the Lady Bulldogs second win over the Midgets in eight days. But Friday night’s victory certainly came alittle tougher than the 21-point victory in Le Mars last Thursday. Le Mars led by a mere two points entering the fourth quarter before connecting on 16-of-20 free throws in the final eight minutes to pull away, outscoring E-L-C 22-11. Sidney Baumgartner had a career high 18 points to lead Le Mars. Syd drilled 12-of-14 foul shots and was 10-of-12 in the final quarter. Jen Schneider added 15 points for Le Mars and Madison Dreckman 12. Morgan White had 17 for the Midgets and Josie Condon 13. Le Mars improves to 12-and-3 for the season and 8-and-2 in the Lakes Conference. E-L-C falls to 4-and-13 with a 3-and-7 league mark.
The Le Mars boys drubbed Estherville/Lincoln Central by 43 points last Thursday in Le Mars but had to battle to the finish Friday night to punch out a 60-50 Lakes Conference win. The Bulldogs led just 42-39 going into the final quarter before building a 12-point lead with 1:40 to play. Trent Hilbrands led the Bulldog scoring with 19 points with Will Pottebaum adding 15 and Jake Thompson 13. Brian Egeland had 15 for E-L-C. Le Mars has now beaten the Midgets 32 straight times over the last 16 seasons. The Bulldogs are 9-and-5 for the season and 8-and-2 in the Lakes Conference. E-L-C slips to 1-and-9 in league play and 5-and-12 for the season.
EVERLY — One night after getting drilled by league-leader Unity Christian 82-33, the Gehlen Catholic girls picked up their third win of the season, a hard-fought 60-59 War Eagle Conference victory at Clay Central-Everly Friday night. Addison Weber had 17 points, Katelyn Langel 12 and Kaylee Schmit 10 to lead the Lady Jays in scoring. Gehlen lead 32-25 at halftime before holding off the Mavericks to improve to 3-and-13 for the season and 3-and-5 in the W-E-C.
The Gehlen Catholic boys returned to the win column Friday night, 24 hours after having their eight-game winning streak halted at Unity Christian, beating Clay Central-Everly 64-51. Cooper Davis led a balanced scoring attack for the Jays with 18 points while Alec Langel added 14 and Brady Livermore 12. The Jays improve to 11-and-4 for the season and 6-and-2 in the War Eagle Conference.

LE MARS — No. 14 (4A) Le Mars added another jewel to a month of crowning achievements Saturday when the Lady Bulldogs avenged a December loss to No. 4 (3A) Cherokee, 60-48, in a make-up game from Tuesday’s postponed Lakes Conference schedule. Le Mars bumped off state-rated Western Christian earlier this month, 60-56, at Hull and have now avenged two of their three losses. The Lady Bulldogs are 9-and-1 in January and have won seven straight heading into Monday’s game at Bishop Heelan. Sidney Baumgartner bettered her career-best 18 points on Friday night at Estherville with 27 Saturday afternoon against the Braves. Baumgartner connected on six field goals, including a trio of three-pointers and hit on 12-of-18 free throws. Jen Schneider dropped in 17 points for the Lady Dogs. Payton Slaughter had 15 for Cherokee, who drops out of a share of the Lakes Conference lead, as the Braves fall to 15-and-2 for the season and 9-and-2 in league play. Le Mars improves to 13-and-3 for the season and 9-and-2 in the Lakes Conference.
The Le Mars boys rolled over Cherokee 76-34 Saturday to improve to 10-and-5 for the season and 9-and-2 in Lakes Conference play. Gabe Eckstaine led the way to an easy victory with a career-best 16 points. Jake Thompson added 14, Will Pottebaum 13 and Trent Hilbrands 10 for Le Mars. Trey Valentine had 9 for Cherokee. The Braves slip to 6-and-11 for the season and 2-and-9 in league play. Le Mars took control early, leading 22-8 after a quarter, 37-17 by halftime and 56-30 after three quarters.
Storm Lake visits the Bulldogs’ Dog Pound on Tuesday for a Lakes Conference girl/boy doubleheader before Le Mars travels to Spirit Lake Friday. The boys play Sioux Center next Saturday in the Sanford Classic at the Pentagon Center in Sioux Falls. The game is scheduled to tip-off at 9 p.m. next Saturday night.
