Saint Jo boys
The Saint Jo Panthers lost a non-district game to Archer City at home on Tuesday.
The Panthers lost 60-43 against the Wildcats, mostly thanks to a not great night at the free throw line.
Saint Jo made less than 50 percent of their attempts, going 16-33 from the line on the night.
Brice Durham led the team with 17 points while Kile Thurman was second scoring nine.

Prairie Valley boys
