Blazing into first


Basketball is king again at North Lake College. The Men's Blazer Basketball Team moved into first place last weekend in the Metro Athletic Conference when they defeated Richland College 96-92 in an overtime thriller.

They followed that up with another overtime win on Wednesday, Feb. 18, beating Cedar Valley 84-81 to keep their hold on first place. This season, the team played eight non-conference games against nationally ranked Division I teams.

The Metro Athletic Conference Tournament will be held Feb. 25-27. The winner will advance to the NJCAA Division III National Tournament, held March 11-13 in Delhi, NY.
