Recap
Salina, KS — The Goddard Lions traveled all the way up north to Salina Central for a conference road game on Friday. Salina is always a challenging road trip but the Lions were fearless when faced with this challenge! The Lions pulled off a big road victory against the Mustangs by a score of 39-30! The Lions struggled a little early as Salina Central hit some jump shots to take an early lead. Goddard was able to mentally handle the early wave of shots from the Mustangs and tied the game up by halftime at 21 all. In the second half, the Lions defense showed up as they allowed a season low of 9 points in the entire second half! The Lions also started to execute offensively and never looked back. This was a great performance from the Lions as they improve to 6-2 on the season, and maintain their undefeated conference record of 6-0.
The Lions will have the next week off as the Varsity team heads into tournament week. The biggest challenge of the season is just ahead of the Lions as they will face the Maize South Mavericks on Tuesday the 26th. This should be one of the best games of the season!
