Playing against much larger schools on back-to-back nights was too much of a hill to climb for the Jonesboro-Hodge Middle School 7th and 8th-grade boys basketball teams as both fell to Neville and Natchitoches Junior High schools. The odyssey began with a trip to Monroe this past Wednesday to face Neville, where the 7th grade lost 33-25 and the 8th grade fell 40-14. On Thursday, the junior Tigers welcomed Natchitoches to their home gym but again lost by scores of 32-25 and 51-15.
J-HMS will be in action again on Monday, November 28th when they host Lincoln Prep on 8th grade recognition night.
