On Tuesday, December 29th, the Monticello Ponies played at Evansville. The Ponies were trailing behind the Blue Devils by 14 at the half and while they outscored the home team in the second half, it wasn’t enough to catch up. The final score was Evansville 67, Monticello 59.

On Monday, December 28th, the Wildcats traveled to take on an exceptionally good Highland team. Unfortunately, the Wildcats started the game slowly by getting down by 10 points in the first four minutes but after that they were able to right the ship with an extremely aggressive defense, which saw the Wildcats go into halftime with 27-21 lead. Coach Pharo said in the second half both teams came out incredibly determined to compete in the game and it saw both teams making runs at each other.
