The Nocona High School boys’ basketball team made it back-to-back playoff appearances Wednesday as the team traveled to Decatur to take on Whitesboro in a Conference 3A bi-district game.
However, the Indians were dealt a stinging 100-70 loss to end their season.
Despite scoring the first basket of the game, the first quarter would not end well for the Tribe as they quickly found themselves in a big 33-18 hole.
Once Whitesboro gained the lead, the Bearcats never relinquished it.
The Bearcats reached the triple digits within the final minute of the fourth quarter en route to their 30-point victory.
Regardless of the loss, Kameron Hill played a great game for the Indians, leading the team with 34 points, adding seven rebounds and an assist.
