After reeling off six straight wins and cracking the top 10 in the Associated Press poll, the Highlanders' boys basketball team has now dropped to six wins, three losses on the season after a home loss to the Doddridge County Bulldogs by a final score of 75 to 62 on Thursday evening.
This was the second loss in a row for the Highlanders after being ranked tenth in Class A. The scrappy Bulldogs have beaten Webster both at home and away this season.
Webster next plays at Roane County on Saturday at 3:00 p.m. (varsity).
Next Monday, Webster County hosts the Martin Luther King Day showcase, featuring four games beginning at 1:00 p.m., followed by the 7:00 p.m. nightcap involving the Charleston Catholic Irish and the Highlanders. The 1:00 p.m. game involves Greater Beckley Christian against Buffalo, followed at 3:00 p.m. with Wirt County and Midland Trail, and a 5:00 p.m. tilt involving Pocahontas County and Fayetteville.
The Webster boy's JV team remain undefeated with their ninth win last night. They defeated the Doddridge JV's by 10 points. Including this year's record, over the past three seasons, the JV team under coach Eddie Mazzella sports an impressive 34 win, 4 loss record. Few coaches and teams have posted such an accomplishment.
