Ipswich hosted a familiar rival in boys' Class B post-season high school basketball action last Tuesday in the Tiger Den and the Tigers came away with a convincing 67-52 Region 6B victory. That ended the Trojans' season record at 9-12, while Ipswich improved to 14-6 at that juncture of its season. Faulkton never led! And that's partly because the Tigers would score the first 10 points of the game before Faulkton could even get on the scoreboard. Trevor Heinz started things with a basket in the...
