Adrian — The Adrian Antelope boys basketball team wasted no time in dispatching the Notus Pirates Monday beginning the game with a 24-6 first quarter effort on the way to a 58-49 win.
Adrian continued to control the game through the second quarter, despite allowing Notus to match its 17 point production, and at the break, Adrian led 41-23.
Notus tried to make a game of it in the second half by outscoring Adrian 26-17, but it was too little to late for the Pirates.
Leading Adrian was George Ellsworth with 18 points, while teammates Kyle Dondero and Blake Purnell each pitched in with 11 points in the win.
