"That game had a college basketball feel to it. It was a great environment, and a really physical game. I am proud of our guys for the fight we had and how hard we guarded," said Laker Head Coach Troy Larson.

In the their second game of the weekend the Lakers would knock off Highland Community College of Kansas 93-81.

Laker Head Coach Troy Larson had this to say about the contest, "Our effort wasn't nearly as good as it was last night on the defensive end but offensively we shot over 50% from the floor for the first time this year. It was nice to start to see some guys get in a rhythm offensively."
