The Paris Tigers boys’ varsity basketball team had their sixth away game Friday night against Charleston, losing 42-48, although still putting up a fight until the very end of the 4th quarter. The Tigers were led by Dalten Temples who had a tremendous 19 points by the end of 4th quarter.
The score for all four quarters are as followed;
1st quarter - Paris: 8 Charleston: 6
2nd quarter - Paris: 20 Charleston: 17
3rd quarter - Paris: 30 Charleston: 30
4th quarter - Paris: 42 Charleston: 48
The Tigers did a great job and even stayed on top until the 4th quarter, where Charleston took control and ended with a six point lead.
This wasn’t the Tigers’ best game-point wise, but the boys still did put forth a marvelous effort. The Tigers with the top three points are as follows: Dalten Temples - 19 points; Corey Cunningham – 5 points; and Ethan Mason – 4 points, even though he fouled out of the game along with Jordan Ball.
These boys have a humongous amount of potential and work well as a team. With the way they’ve started this season, I wouldn’t put it against them to say that they have a shot to go very far this year. They train hard and play even harder, and this strategy is a baseline for a great team, even with a loss few and far between.
Even with this loss, the Tigers have had a wonderful season with a record of 5-2. With the effort of this team, it wouldn’t be surprising if they keep on with this fantastic record and an even better season.
