Comanche teams go 1-2 at Latta basketball tournament

December 21, 2023

Both the Comanche Indians and Lady Indians made it to the consolation finals of the Latta Tournament last week with both teams coming up short in their final game.

The Comanche girls did pick up their first win of the season in the tournament and went 1-2 overall. The Indians also went 1-2 in the tournament.

“We’re playing defense like we want, we’ve just got to find some offense,” Comanche girls coach Braydon Robinson said. “With the exception of Washington, we’ve given up points in the 30s and 40s, which is what we want. We just need to find someone who can step up and lead us offensively.”
