Tigers sweep Miners and Longhorns

HANNA: After a 38 point rout over the Miners at the Lingle tournament last month, Friday’s hosts gave Lusk a much tougher game. Niobrara County High School trailed early and often, while Hanna-Elk Mountain proved up to the challenge. Brady Swisher buried a long triple before Corbin Matthews went down hard- and did not return, as the Tigers held a slim three point edge after one stanza. The Miners continued to work through the NCHS pressure and found themselves with a five point halftime lead.
