Pirates fall out of first place in loss to Garland

by | Jan 20, 2021 | Sports

Wylie boys basketball has been one of the best teams in the district for the past couple of seasons. Undefeated in Dis­trict 9-6A play, Wylie had a chance to cement itself on top on the second night of a back-to-back.

In the end, the size and in­terior presence of Garland proved too much and Wylie suffered its first district loss in almost two years.

The week began on a posi­tive note as the Pirates had to make up games against Lakev­iew Centennial on Thursday. They were aggressive inside and used a 15-7 first-quarter advantage to win the game 55-37.
