Leo Vs. Public League Marshall – Basketball Commentary by David Gross.
For the second time this week, the Leo basketball team slipped into a comfort zone after leaving the opening gate in thoroughbred fashion.

The teams combined to shoot 16-for-56 (29 percent) in a dreadful first half, with 19 total turnovers. Such misfeasance might have been expected of the Pioneers, […]
