The Manchester High School Boys Basketball Team traveled to Norfolk to play against a very solid Landstown basketball team. The arena had a loud atmosphere that the team had yet to face.

The first half of the game was very back and forth, with Manchester down 20-30 at halftime.

The Lancers ended up taking a tough  playoff loss in the second round to Landstown, by a final score of  66-47, ending the season in heartbreak. The team looked for a way to score against the Landstown defense throughout the game but could not find answers. Makai Byerson led the team in scoring, having 11 points to end the game. 

Coach Joshua Karlson expressed his happiness to the team saying “Thank you to all the seniors and those that wore an MHS uniform this year. Congratulations on a 22-2 Season.”
