HIGH SCHOOL WINTER SPORTS: Lakeview 5 passes the test
STONEBORO – In high school, teachers will give pretests as a way for their students to prepare for an upcoming exam.
The Lakeview Sailors (13-4) received their ‘pretest’ last Monday in the form of Region 5-AA foe Iroquois (8-7) and passed it with a solid ‘A’ by beating the Braves 73-53.
“We really wanted to make this somewhat of a statement game,” Lakeview coach Gary Burke said. “We know Iroquois is fighting for their lives to get into District 10 playoffs. We knew they took Mercyhurst Prep to the wire Friday night. We wanted to prove that we can play the game pretty well down here in the south. It’s been a long time since (Mercer County) team has gone to the playoffs and performed well. This was a great test for us to give us that Erie County flavor. I couldn’t be happier with the performance.” -

Friday night at Hornet Stadium, stalemated at the half with Slippery Rock High 14-all, Hickory was exhibiting some of those aforementioned shortcomings. But while floundering Philly feels its way toward finding a solution, the Hornets have their own anecdote: DeShawn Coleman.
