Faith Academy boys lose opening match at Zephyr tourney
ZEPHYR – The Faith Academy boys basketball team lost 57-45 to the host team in the Flames’ opening game of the Zephyr Tournament on Dec. 7.
Flames head coach Randy Denton said foul trouble allowed Zephyr to set the pace.
"We started out fast, and they slowed us down and we couldn’t get the tempo back," he said. "It’s their gym, their tournament. It’s a tough spot to be in."
