Basketball Recap: Christ Prep Academy Takes a Loss

Christ Prep Academy came up into this matchup off a tough 21-point loss last Thursday. This time they kept things ultra-competitive, but unfortunately the final result was the same. They fell just short of the Northeast Kansas Nighthawks HomeSchool Nighthawks by a score of 46-43 on Saturday. While losing is never fun, the Patriots can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Kansas basketball rankings (they are ranked 349th, while the Nighthawks are ranked 166th).
