The Melcher-Dallas Boys Basketball Squad hoped for some magic against Bluegrass Conference Tournament 2nd seed Moravia, but the MoHawks did not play along and defeated the Saints 72-26. Coach Matt Bennett told KNIA Sports the rustiness from not playing for almost two weeks was evident. The Saints will play in a consolation round game against Moulton-Udell. That game will be part of double header at Twin Cedars on Thursday
Due to winter weather the girls quarterfinal against Orient-Macksburg has been postponed to Wednesay at 6:00pm. A win would put Melcher-Dallas in a semi-final game for the 2nd straight season at Mormon Trail on Friday against either Lamoni or Moravia.
