Blue Earth and Glencoe-Silver Lake squared off in some playoff action on Thursday, but Blue Earth had to settle for second. They took a 77-71 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Glencoe-Silver Lake Panthers. While losing is never fun, the Buccaneers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Minnesota basketball rankings (they are ranked 203rd, while the Panthers are ranked 61st).
Blue Earth has also traveled a rocky road recently, having lost six of their last eight matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 10-15 record this season. Those losses can't be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 68.6 points over those games. The victory was the eighth in a row for Glencoe-Silver Lake, bringing their record for this year to 20-5.
As of now, neither Blue Earth nor Glencoe-Silver Lake have any future games scheduled.
