GRAND MEADOW — The Grand Meadow boys basketball team mustered just 17 second half points as it lost 54-43 to Houston (17-6 overall, 13-3 SEC) in GM Friday.

“Offensively we really rushed in the second half and had way too many possessions with one pass and a shot instead of moving the ball and making the zone rotate,” GM head coach Chad Burmester said.

Trenton Bleifus led the Superlarks (8-15 overall, 4-12 SEC) with 10 points.

Houston 28 26 — 54

GM 26 17 — 43
