Springs Valley Community High School

The Springs Valley boys' basketball team opened its season at Mitchell on Tuesday, falling 68-51. The Blackhawks trailed just 14-13 after one quarter, then 31-26 at halftime, but a third quarter in which they were outscored 26-13 ultimately proved too much to overcome.

Larron Childers was also strong, putting up 12 points and grabbing three rebounds. The senior knocked down three of his four 3-pointers.
