After flying high against Prairieville last Tuesday, St. Amant came back down to earth. The St. Amant Gators lost 75-54 to the Denham Springs Yellowjackets on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Gators can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 101st, while the Yellowjackets are ranked 15th).
St. Amant has also been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 21-22 record this season. Those losses can't be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 67.0 points over those games. Denham Springs' victory was their ninth straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 27-3.
Looking ahead, St. Amant won't have much time to rest: their next contest is against Salmen at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Denham Springs does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
