There were two games with lopsided outcomes, with the surging Noxon boys and girls sweeping a pair of road games against Alberton, whose teams are showing signs of emerging varsity talent.
The Noxon boys took control early in their game against the Panthers this past Friday night in Alberton, then cruised to an overwhelming 82-30 win, while the Noxon girls, who have shown signs of improvement in recent weeks after a slow start, clipped the Lady Panthers 36-23.
In the boys' game, Noxon’s deep, talented line-up, led by seniors Shane Murray and Ricky Williams overwhelmed Alberton in the first quarter, building a 29-11 lead by the end of the first eight minutes of play and never trailing the rest of the game. Williams poured in 15 points in the initial quarter, including a pair of long-range threes.
