The Cougars took care of business Monday night to add another win to the résumé.

A balanced scoring attack and some attention to detail allowed the Cougars (7-5) to pull away in the second half. Seth Martin led LCA with 14 points, followed by Landon Gause with 13, Cameron Shepherd with 12, Silas Gagnon with 10 and Hunter Rice with nine.

Granger Christian hit six three-pointers in the first half, but just two in the second half.

“We knew from film that this team shot the three pretty well so we wanted to make it a priority in getting out on them,” stated LCA head coach Jake Ritchie. “First half I felt like we got a little to lackadaisical on some guys and they were able to hit six. I pushed our guys to cut that number down to three at the most in the second half, which they did by only giving up two. I was very proud of the effort and focus our guys showed for all four quarters.”
