The first Claiborne Parish Weekly Basketball Report will come out every week with an update on how the three LHSAA schools in Claiborne Parish are doing for girls and boys basketball. Due to lack of information on girls, we don’t have a girls top performance or starting 5 and next 5. The boys have their first edition.
Summerfield has been hitting the court since November. The Rebels (3-13) split the week snapping a five game slide by beating Glenbrook at home on Tuesday night. The Lady Rebels (12-4) meanwhile kept their three game streak rolling with wins over Glenbrook and in-parish rival Haynesville.
Homer Lady Pelicans (4-5) headed to Minden and made it to the semi-finals of the Minden Holiday Classic picking up wins over Richwood and Simsboro but fell to the host team on Friday evening. The Homer boys basketball team (0-2) just began their season last week in the Doyline Tournament and came up short again North Caddo in the Logansport Tournament.
Haynesville Golden Tornado boys basketball team (2-1) had a rollercoaster week as they open the season on Tuesday night with a win over Magnolia School of Excellence. Haynesville headed to Haughton and picked up their first loss, but ended the week on a high with a win over in-parish rival Summerfield. The Haynesville girl’s team (0-5) are still looking for their first win.
Jermarquise Hampton of Haynesville had two of the three top performances of the week, while Marquez Tate had the highest scoring performance of the week.
Holiday week coming up and catch some action early next week before the kids take a break for Christmas and New Years break.
