Carter Olthoff and Evan Talcott have been the scoring leaders for Brandon Valley in the team’s first three games this season. Thursday night, it was Cade Terveer’s turn.
Twenty-four hours after Brandon Valley dropped a hard-fought loss on the home court to second-ranked Harrisburg, the Lynx faced another top-five team – Aberdeen Central – and this time came out on the winning side of the 63-60 outcome.
Evan Talcott felt right at home in the old-school atmosphere of the Sanford Pentagon Thursday night, as the Lynx junior burned up the net for 23 points. But despite Talcott’s display, the Yankton Bucks prevailed in the 49-37 outcome.
And for the Lady Lynx, playing in the comforts of their home gym on Saturday, the comforts of home resulted in a 58-38 win over the Watertown Arrows (0-3).
Brandon Valley went up against one of Class AA’s early-season frontrunners, the Lincoln Patriots, and despite the 70-62 setback in Friday’s season-opener, the Lynx showed their fans that they’re a team that’s not going to just roll over and die.
