FRIDAY RESULTS – January 5

(high school basketball)

SIOUX CITY — Number-nine (4A) Le Mars scored the first 12 points of the second half and held Sioux City East to just two points in the third quarter and the Lady Bulldogs rolled to a 50-28 victory Friday afternoon in the C-N-O-S Foundation Classic at the Tyson Events Center.  Madison Dreckman and Jenn Schneider scored 11 points each to lead Le Mars while Kennedy McCloy had 10 for East.  Le Mars improves to 9-and-2 heading into a challenging week that includes games against state-rated Sioux Center and Western Christian.

SIOUX CITY — What was billed as a marque match-up Friday night at the C-N-O-S Foundation Classic between number-eight (3A) Le Mars and number-six (4A) Sioux City East turned out to be a bust from the Bulldogs’ perspective.  Leading scorer and playmaker Will Pottebaum rolled his ankle during pregame while stepping off the raised floor at the Tyson Events Center and had to be scratched from the contest.  The result — East had their way, winning 78-39 to drop Le Mars to 6-and-3 for the season.  6’6″ power forward Van Rees scored 20 points for the Black Raiders and Jaleque Dunson dropped in 17 off the bench.  Alex Irwin got his first start of the season and led Le Mars with a career-best 16 points while J.T. Engebretson added 13.

LE MARS — The Gehlen Catholic girls returned to the win column after a pair of back-to-back losses, beating visiting Harris-Lake Park 59-47 in the first War Eagle Conference action of the New Year.  The Lady Jays built a 23-point lead through three quarter before the Wolves rallied a bit in the final quarter once the reserves took over.  Addison Weber scored a career-high 22 points to lead Gehlen’s scoring attack with Katelyn Langel adding another 13 to the cause.  The Lady Jays improve to 8-and-3 for the season and 4-and-2 in league play.

LE MARS — The Gehlen Catholic boys bounced back from Thursday’s loss at Sergeant Bluff with a 69-57 War Eagle Conference victory over Harris-Lake Park Friday night at the Marvin Langel Memorial gym.  All five starters scored in double figures for the Jays.  Alec Langel led the way with 16, Cole Wiltgen and Bryan Nohava added 13 each, Brady Livermore finished with 12 and Caden Kneip had 11.  The Jays are now 7-and-4 for the season and 3-and-3 in the W-E-C.

NFC WILD CARD: Atlanta 26, L.A. Rams 13

KANSAS CITY — Marcus Mariota and the Tennessee Titans have earned a spot in the A-F-C divisional playoffs by erasing a 21-3 deficit in Kansas City.  Mariota led three second-half touchdown drives and the Titans earned their first playoff win in 14 years by surprising the Chiefs 22-21 in Kansas City. He sparked the rally by becoming the first quarterback to toss a scoring pass to himself in a playoff game, doing it on a third-and-goal at the Kansas City 6. The throw was deflected by Darrelle Revis straight to Mariota, who dived into the end zone for the TD to cap a 15-play, 91-yard drive.

 LOS ANGELES — Matt Ryan passed for 218 yards and hit Julio Jones for an 8-yard touchdown with 5:48 to play, and the defending N-F-C champion Falcons advanced from the wild-card round with a methodical 26-13 victory over the Rams.
