Notes
After pulling out one- and three-point road victories to open the season, Lackawanna Trail lost four straight, including its first two home games.
The Lions Lions struggled offensively during the losing streak, averaging just 30.5 points per game.
Lackawanna Trail started the New Year 3-4 and fourth among the seven teams working for seeding position in the District 2 Class 2A tournament. The top four teams are assured of at least one home playoff game.
The Lady Lions began Lackawanna League Division 4 play a day later than four of their division rivals when their scheduled Jan. 2 opener with Blue Ridge was moved back to Jan. 3. That result was not available at presstime.
