 The Castle Lake Beena Boys basketball team was one of the most impressive in our area last year, making it all the way to the Class A semifinals, and they've picked up right where they're left off. The Panthers are ranked third in the state with a perfect 7-0 record, and have already beaten fifth ranked Northwoods, the team that defeated them in the semis last year. Taking on Manoban Waban, who also made to the state tournament last year, it was competitive early, but the Panthers poured it on in the second half. Jarell Jacobs hits the three, good ball movement to set that up. Later on, Ethan Brown into the paint for Jared Brown. Power dribbles in, gets the bucket to fall, makes it 65-39. The Panthers defense was swarming all game, forces the turnover. They get it up quickly in transition, and Antonio Brown finishes for the easy buckets. Another statement went for Castle Lake Beena, they take it's 84-51. Consider making a tax-deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.
