Bloomfield, Missouri - Two SCAA teams met on the court in the Bloomfield High School gym on Friday, December 16th.  The Advance Hornets came out on top 55 - 50.

Bloomfield's Peyton Bell recorded a game-high 21 points, but it was not enough to overcome the Hornets' Wuebker, Hood and Mayo who each finished in double digits.  Wuebker tallied 14 points, Hood reached 16, and Mayo finished with 11 for Advance.

"We got off to a slow start and couldn't get out of the hole we dug ourselves," commented Bloomfield head boys basketball coach Brandon Crook.  "We battled back and tied it at 50 to give ourselves a chance to win the ballgame, but costly turnovers late in the game and clutch free throws by Advance were too much to overcome."
