The Lyle-Pacelli boys basketball team lost 69-34 at Goodhue (8-4 overall) Monday.

The Athletics (6-6 overall) had some good looks in the first half, but they couldn’t knock too many of them down.

“We got quite a few good eight to ten foot looks, but they were rimming out and we weren’t getting many second chances,” LP head coach Casey Anderson said. “The name of the game was boxing out. They’re a real good team and they rebounded well.”
