Tough Ending: Paladins Fall to Perimeter School in Playoffs

The Fellowship Christian School sixth-grade boys basketball team lost in a very close contest to begin the Metro 10 League Playoffs.

On Jan, 24 at Paladin Gym, the Paladins dropped a 30-25 decision to Perimeter School in the opening round of the playoffs.

The Paladins finished the season with an 8-5 record.

“Our guys definitely let their nerves get the best of them,” head coach Josh Nelson said. “It was back-and-forth most of the game. Unfortunately, nobody stepped up for us down the stretch. The other team hit their free throws when they needed to and ultimately played the better game. I’m disappointed for our boys to finish the season that way, but hopefully they had fun and learned a lot.”

Streak Snapped: Paladins Fall at King’s Academy

The Fellowship Christian School sixth-grade boys basketball team’s three-game win streak has come to an end.

On Jan. 13 in Woodstock, the Paladins dropped a 39-32 decision at King’s Academy.

“It was a back-and-forth game with many lead changes in the first half, but they had a big third quarter that opened up their lead,” head coach Josh Nelson said. “We played well in the fourth quarter but missed too many open shots to make a comeback.”

Noah Nelson led all scorers with 13 points.

Despite the loss, the Paladins own a 7-4 record.
