Both basketball programs from Forestburg and Prairie Valley competed in a tournament in Chico Thursday through Saturday.
Of the six games played Saturday, the final day of action, the four teams compiled a combined record of 2-4 with the Horns and Lady Horns taking the victories.
The Longhorns opened the day’s events against Boyd.
Despite keeping the score close, the Horns struggles at the free throw line was a glaring issue through the first half as the Yellowjackets took a 19-13 lead at the half. The game remained close; however, Boyd would prevail 48-40.
“We just did not play that well on either side of the ball,” said head coach Steve Sandusky. “On defense we looked sluggish and were not as aggressive as we need to be.”
Taten Vann and J.D. Moore paced the team with 12 points in the contest. Vann recorded three rebounds, two assists and two steals; Moore added six rebounds.
The Prairie Valley Lady Bulldogs took the court next, playing the away team to the Boyd.
PV had a rough go at the game as they were unable to break through to double digits until the fourth quarter. Boyd won 49-10. Read more, and see box scores, in the mid-week Bowie News.

The Red River High School Bass Club competed on Saturday at Eagle Mount Lake as the club finished fifth overall out of 28 clubs.
The club had two teams that brought in fish at the end of the day, but one also finished highly.
The team of Carson Caudle and Hunter Blackburn got fourth overall out of more than 100 teams. The pair caught three fish that weighed in at 7.99 pounds.
The club had one more pair that brought in fish. Walker Strahan and Bryce Ramsey got one fish that weighed in a 1.95 pounds that was good for 33rd place.
