After flying high against the Buffalo Bison last Tuesday, the Teague Lions came back down to earth. Teague was just a bucket shy of victory on Friday and fell 38-37 to Groesbeck. Teague was given a dose of their own medicine in this game as Groesbeck apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played on January 2nd.
