Logan teams sweep Todd,
each now 2-0 in district
Names and numbers stand out in Logan County’s basketball district sweep of visiting Todd Central Friday. Brenley Adler scored 21 points and Takayla Mason 20 while Kyla Bilyeu hit the winning free throws with 10 seconds remaining in the Lady Cougars’ come-from-behind 55-53 win. Reserve Colby Collins hit seven 3-pointers, including five in the third quarter, to join Samson Hightower with team highs of 23 points while the bench outscored the Rebel subs 29-0 in the Cougars’ 80-68 win in the nightcap. But that doesn’t come close to telling the whole story because so many people contributed to making both LCHS teams 2-0 in district play.
