It will be after Christmas before the Glenbrook Apaches basketball teams take to the hardcourt again.
However, the showing both the boys and girls put on Saturday night will make for an even brighter holiday.
The local school played host to Union Christian Academy Saturday evening. But Glenbrook was not very hospitable on the court as the boys team crushed the visitors 67-16 and the Lady Apaches pulled out a 37-30 win.
“Tonight was a very good game for us,” boys coach Chris Kourveles said. “Everyone scored and we played very unselfishly. Everybody showed hustle and effort, which is good going into the holidays.”
The Apaches limited UCA to just 8 points in the first quarter, three in the second, zero in the third and five in the fourth. “We are preparing each practice and in each game for our district,” Kourveles said. “District play is coming up in a month and we are looking forward to that.”
Matt Moorehead was the high man with 17 points. Zach Specht had 12 points and Preston Wise had eight. DeAngelo McDonald, Thomas Bean and Blake Branch all had seven points.
As for the Lady Apaches, Laura Payne scored 10 to help pace the home team to the 37-30 victory.
Kate Tracy was second in scoring with seven points. Bailey Madden, Chelsea Wentz and Maggie Silar had four.
“I hope everyone has a good Christmas break,” Kourveles said. “We will have a couple of games during our break. On Dec. 29-30 we will be in a double header over at Prairie View.”
