Leechburg unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a 54-44 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Apollo Ridge Vikings on Friday. The Blue Devils just can't catch a break and have now endured 16 defeats in a row dating back to last season.

When it comes to explaining why Leechburg lost, don't look at Brady Rollinger. Despite the final result, he had 21 points in addition to two steals. Rollinger is on a roll when it comes to steals, as he's now grabbed two or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season. Another player making a difference was Mason Scitticatt, who posted five points.

Leechburg has already played their next matchup, a 54-52 victory against Summit Academy on the 30th. Apollo Ridge has also already played their next contest (against Leechburg), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
