TUESDAY RESULTS – January 17

(high school basketball)

HULL — Sophomore Annie Ellis dropped in a pair of free throws with four seconds to play to secure a 60-56 upset win by No. 15 (4A) Le Mars as they handed No. 3 (2A) Western Christian their first loss in Lakes Conference play to tighten the league race.  The Wolfpack are now tied with Cherokee for the league lead with one loss each while Le Mars has moved to within one game of the front runners.  Junior Jen Schneider keyed the Lady Bulldogs’ victory with a career-high 26 points while Madison Dreckman added 12 and Sidney Baumgartner 11.  Schneider and Baumgartner combined to connect on 14-of-17 free throw shots.  Ashtyn Veerbeek led Western with 22.  Le Mars had to overcome a seven minute scoring drought in the first half that saw Western reel off 14 unanswered points to take a 16-4 lead early in the second quarter.  The Lady Bulldogs scored 24 points in the second period to draw to within two points by halftime.  There would be nine lead changes in the second half before Le Mars took the lead for good with 4:05 to play.  The Lady Bulldogs victory snapped an 20-game losing streak against Western Christian, dating back to the 2005-2006 season.  Le Mars improves to 9-and-3 for the season and 5-and-2 in league play.  Western saw their 11-game winning streak stopped as they fall to 12-and-2 for the season and 7-and-1 in the Lakes Conference.

Top-rated (2A) Western Christian turned the boys game into a one-sided affair after halftime as the Wolfpack completed a sweep of their season series with Le Mars with a 76-50 Lakes Conference victory Tuesday night in Hull.  Western drilled 10 three-pointers while extending a 14-point halftime lead to a 20-point advantage two and-a-half minutes into the second half.  The lead would eventually reach 30 in the fourth quarter.  The Wolfpack takes over sole possession of the Lakes Conference lead with a 7-and-1 league mark while Le Mars slips into a second place tie with Storm Lake and Spirit Lake with a 5-and-2 mark in Lakes Conference play.  The Bulldogs are now 6-and-5 for the season while Western Christian improves to 11-and-1, winning their ninth in a row since an early December loss to Spirit Lake.  Western Christian has a chance to avenge that loss as they host Spirit Lake Friday night.  Tyson Kooima led the Wolfpack scoring with 24 points Tuesday night, hitting six three-pointers.  Jesse Jansma added 14 and Ben Gesink 11.  Jake Thompson had 11 for Le Mars.

There was quite a finish to the boys J-V game with Le Mars winning in four overtimes, 51-50 as Caleb Ketelsen hit one of two free throws with 3.4 second to play and then the Bulldogs had to hold their breath as Western Christian’s three-point attempt missed the mark at the buzzer.  Western won the J.V. girls game by 21.

ATLANTA — The Atlanta Falcons are N-F-C champions after Matt Ryan threw for four touchdowns and ran for another in a 44-21 rout of the Packers. Atlanta dominated the first half, scoring on four of their five possessions to take a 24-0 lead into the locker room.  Ryan was 27 of 38 for 392 yards and no interceptions. His primary target was Julius Jones, who had nine receptions for 180 yards and two T-Ds, including a 73-yard grab-and-run that put the Falcons up 31-0 on their second offensive play of the second half.  Atlanta blanked the Packers until Aaron Rodgers hit Davante Adams for a two-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Rodgers was 27 of 45 for 287 yards, three T-Ds and one interception.

FOXBORO — New England quarterback Tom Brady has broken his franchise record, passing for 384 yards and three touchdowns to power the Patriots to a 36-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Sunday’s A-F-C Championship game at Gillette Stadium.  Brady completed 32 of 42 passes, picking apart Pittsburgh’s defense, often hitting wide open receivers who found plenty of room to move in Pittsburgh’s zone defense.  New England advances to Houston for Super Bowl 51 against the Atlanta Falcons in two weeks.
