The Wildcats trailed 23-22 at halftime, but left the Bobcats behind with a 15-5 run in the third quarter.

“It was probably one of our best games against a good team offensively,” Alpena coach John Pintar said. “In the second half and in the third quarter we played well, we moved the ball well. It was nice to see us share the ball and get some good looks.”

JOHANNESBURG–The Onaway boys basketball fought from whistle to whistle for three quarters on Thursday.

Then the fourth quarter started.

Onaway was ultimately left behind and lost 66-59 to Johannesburg-Lewiston.

“The fourth quarter was a killer. We got cold shooting and our defense was discombobulated. The defense was a little lax,” Onaway coach Eddy Szymoniak said. “They battled hard, but at that point it was a battle.”

Kevin Pearson paced Onaway (1-7) with 25 points, Austin Nash had 14, Jager Mix had 12 and Spencer Nash had six.
