LE MARS — Sydney Livermore muscled in a bank shot through three defenders with 16 seconds to play to lift Gehlen Catholic to a 63-62 win over Akron-Westfield Thursday night in a War Eagle Conference make-up doubleheader from January 17th. Livermore was fouled on the play but missed the foul shot giving the Westerners a chance to go the length of the floor and win it at their end. McKenna Henrich took a hurried twelve foot shot off the right base line that missed the mark and the Lady Jays grabbed the rebound as time ran off the clock. Livermore finished with 17 points to lead a balanced scoring attack with Addison Weber dropping in 13 and Lauren Heying 10. Chloe Colt led all scorers with 20 for Akron-Westfield. The Westerners rallied from a 13-point deficit midway through the third quarter to take a 60-55 lead with three minutes to go in the game. But Gehlen closed the game on an 8-2 run to improve their record to 10-6 and 4-3 in the W-E-C. Akron-Westfield falls to 12-5 and 4-3 in league play.
The boys game lacked the same kind of drama as Gehlen Catholic pulled away after halftime to beat Akron-Westfield 76-41 to send the Westerners to 0-14 for the season and 0-7 in the War Eagle Conference. Gehlen led by just 12 at halftime, but outscored the Westerners 38-15 over the final two quarters. The Jays improve to 5-11 for the season and 3-4 in league play. Keaton Bonderson and Carter DeRocher netted 24 points each to lead the Gehlen scoring. Jacob Nemmers, last years scoring lead at 14.3 ppg, made his long awaited season debut Thursday night and scored five points while playing sparingly. Derek Vanderlinden had 11 points to pace A-W.

COUNCIL BLUFFS — Brooke Haage opened the second half with seven straight points to give Le Mars a 15-point lead and the Lady Bulldogs ended a six-game losing skid with a 44-32 victory over Council Bluffs T-J Friday night in a Missouri River Activities Conference game in Council Bluffs. Haage ended with only nine points but her three-pointer followed by a pair of two-point field goals seemed to turn the tide for good. Jaelynn Dreckman finished with a game-high 15 points for Le Mars. The Lady Bulldogs improve to 6-10 for the season and 4-7 in league play.
In the boys game, Le Mars had to quell a late charge by Council Bluffs T-J to win for tenth time in the last eleven games, 50-39 Friday night. The Yellowjackets whittled a 12-point deficit to 42-39 with a minute and a half to play in the game when Alec Dreckman hit a pair of free throws to make it 44-39 and then proceeded to steal the ball at mid-court and hit break away lay-ups two times in a row and his six-point flurry in a matter of seconds iced the road win for the Bulldogs. Spencer Mackey capped the night with a pair of free throws to complete an 8-0 blitz to the finish of the contest. The Bulldogs were 18-of-22 from the foul line Friday. Dreckman ended with 15 points while Mackey had 10. Quaran Owens, a.k.a. “Q”, had 24 of the 39 T-J points. Le Mars sends their record to 11-4 and 7-3 in the M-R-A-C.
PAULLINA — South O’Brien won a hard-fought, 50-47 War Eagle Conference victory over the Gehlen Catholic girls Friday in Paullina, dropping the Lady Jays to 10-7 for the season and 4-4 in the W-E-C. Taryn Hintz dropped in 22 points, hitting 16-of-20 from the foul line, to lead the Wolverines. Sydney Livermore had 16 for Gehlen Catholic while Addison Weber and Chloe Bunkers added 11 each.
No. 9 (1A) South O’Brien got 33 points from Jackson Louscher Friday night and overwhelmed the youthful Gehlen Catholic Jays squad 78-47 in Paullina. Keaton Bonderson had 21 to lead the Jays with Carter DeRocher adding 13. Gehlen falls to 5-12 for the season and 3-5 in the War Eagle Conference.

Kansas City Chiefs 31, San Francisco 49ers 20
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs have ended a half-century of frustration. Patrick Mahomes engineered three touchdown drives in a 6:13 span of the fourth quarter as the Chiefs roared back from a 10-point deficit to defeat the San Francisco 49ers, 31-20 in Super Bowl 54 Sunday. It’s the first NFL championship for the Chiefs since beating the Minnesota Vikings, 24-7 in Super Bowl 4. Mahomes righted himself after throwing interceptions on consecutive possessions. The comeback started when Mahomes engineered a 68-yard drive that was capped by a one-yard scoring toss to Travis Kelce. The Chiefs quarterback put his team ahead for the first time since the second quarter by hitting Damien Williams for a five-yard TD. Williams later capped his 104-yard rushing performance by scampering 38 yards to give Kansas City breathing room. Mahomes shook off a slow start to finish 26 of 42 for 286 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Tyreek Hill had 105 receiving yards on nine catches, and Sammy Watkins had five receptions for 98 yards. Chiefs coach Andy Reid earned his 222nd career victory, and his first in a Super Bowl.
