The Louisburg girls got out to a big lead and never looked back. LHS handed the Tonganoxie girls their first loss with a 55-11 advantage.

In the boys game, the Wildcats again jumped out to a big lead, as LHS had an 11-0 lead when THS scored its first points with a 3-pointer with 2:20 left in the first quarter.

Louisburg led by as many as 20, but Tonganoxie clawed back in the second half. They trimmed that lead down to single digits and had some chances in the fourth quarter to rally even more, but Louisburg eventually pulled away with a 46-32 victory.

Both Tonganoxie teams fell to 0-1 on the season.

The squads will regroup for a non-conference doubleheader trip Tuesday to Atchison.
