The Springdale boys basketball team split a pair of Northeast 1B games last week, bouncing back from a road loss at Valley Christian with a dominant win at Hunters to improve its record to 2-3 on the season.
Springdale fell 51-43 to Valley Christian on Friday, Dec. 12, in Spokane after a slow start that proved difficult to overcome. The Chargers were held to five points in the opening quarter as Valley Christian built early momentum and carried a 27-13 lead into halftime.
Springdale showed improved offensive rhythm in the second half, outscoring Valley Christian 30-24 over the final two quarters, but the early deficit ultimately held. The Chargers scored 14 points in the third quarter and continued to push in the fourth, trimming the margin late before Valley Christian closed out the win.
Earlier in the week, Springdale put together its most complete performance of the season with a 78-30 road victory over Hunters on Dec. 9.
Springdale challenged Chesterton Academy of Notre Dame on Tuesday, Dec. 16; game results were not available at press time. The Chargers are scheduled to face Wilbur-Creston-Keller on Wednesday, Dec. 17, at 7:30 p.m., followed by a game against Almira-Coulee-Hartline on Friday, Dec. 19, at 7:30 p.m.
