Last week in the season, Seeley basketball looks to District

Before the last week of the regular basketball season, the Seeley-Swan Blackhawks saw victories against Victor and Phillipsburg over the weekend, along with a forfeit for the men's team on Saturday against Granite High School in Phillipsburg.

Against Victor on Friday night, the women's team won 59-13, and the men took it away with 46-18. Men's basketball coach Michael Haines said the team played good defense, but the "offense just wasn't clicking." He said he hopes that comes around for tournaments starting Feb. 15.

On Saturday, the men's team had to forfeit their home game against Granite High School. Granite's team didn't have enough players to play, which Haines said was due to illness. The women's team won against Granite High School 58-27.

Looking forward to District tournaments, Haines said he's hoping the team plays their best basketball, both offensively and defensively.

"We haven't really done that yet," Haines said. "(But) we're getting better."

Haines said the game against Victor was kind of an "off night" for the men's team, and if they had been on, they'd have scored in the 80-point range.

Catch the final games of the season at home against Victor on Thursday at 3 p.m., at home against Lincoln on Friday at 4:30 p.m. and at home against Lincoln on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. The last away game of the regular basketball season will be in Missoula against Valley Christian on Saturday at 2 p.m.
