The Brownfield Runnin’ Cubs were not able to come home with a victory Monday night as they fell to the Dimmitt Bobcats 53-43. Basketball is always said to be a game of runs and on Monday in the first quarter it was exactly that as Dimmitt started on a 4-0 run, followed by a Brownfield 8-0 run, which was then answered by a 4-0 run to end the first tied at 8. Early in the second quarter it was Jeron Lawrence finding his groove from deep as he had 2 threes for the Runnin’ Cubs, but Dimmitt had an answer each time down the floor. During the second frame Dimmitt would go on a run that saw them knock down some timely threes. Brownfield had opportunities to get some points on the board and respond but were just not able to knockdown the open looks when they had them. Going into the locker room Brownfield trailed 25-19. Coming out of the break, Brownfield was looking for a spark on offense and they go it in this quarter netting 10 points in the first four minutes of the third quarter but were not getting the stops they needed to chip away at the lead. Both schools would exchange buckets till the end of the 3 rd when Brownfield was finally able to string some stops together but now the offense stalled and good looks were hard to come by. The third quarter would come and go, and the 6 point deficit Brownfield faced coming out of the locker room was now 4 as they still trailed 36-32. The fourth quarter was one that was dominated by one side, Dimmitt made the adjustments needed to end the third frame and came out and capitalized off the defensive momentum in the final quarter as the Bobcats held the Runnin’ Cubs to two points for the first six minutes of the final frame and that was exactly what Dimmitt needed to close out the win and protect home court defeating Brownfield 53-43.

The Brownfield Lady Cubs dropped another tough game to the Denver City Fillies 43-37. It was a great start for Lady Cubs as Jaelyn Molina made the first couple baskets for Brownfield to give them a 4-0 lead. Denver City would answer with four straight points tying the game at 4. ButAmery Pauda would find herself open for a three and would drain it. Denver City however would have an answer as they hit a three of their own. On the very next possession the junior guard Rhianna Miranda who finally returned after missing some games with a foot injury, would knock down another 3 and it would send the Lady Cubs off and running as they would go on a 10-2 run to end the quarter and take a 17-9 lead to the second. In the first four minutes of the quarter both schools would trade buckets. The Lady Cubs did a great job on the defensive end causing turnovers and not letting Denver City have second chances on the boards but were not able to capitalize offensively. Both teams slowed down to end the half thanks to a ton of turnovers. At the end of the first half, it was a 24-16 lead for Brownfield. Coming out of the break Denver City made the move to apply more pressure in the half court and it paid off in a big way as they would own the third quarter outscoring Brownfield 13-3 and would take a 29- 27 lead into the fourth. Denver City would use that momentum from the third quarter to fuel the beginning of the fourth as they would score four more points forcing Brownfield to use a timeout with 4:50 left in the ballgame and down 33-27. Out of the time out you couldn’t have had a better string of plays as Miranda would hit a shot, then Molina would add two more off a putback, and then Miranda once again getting a bucket to create a 6-0 and tie the game at 33 and force the Fillies to use a timeout. Out of the timeout Denver City would knock down the go ahead three, Brownfield would go down on their end and Miranda would get to the free throw line and knock down a pair to make it a one point game but that would be as close as it would get as Denver City would go on to win the game 43-37.
