<p>Thursday evenings are always a little bit lighter on the Indiana High School Basketball scene. However, we here at Prep Hoops Indiana still provide complete coverage of those games that are played around the state. Let’s take a quick look at some of the games and individual performances from Thursday night.</p> <h2>Leo Takes Down East Noble</h2> <p>The Leo Lions kept pace atop the Northeast 8 Conference standings with a 57-40 win over East Noble this evening. After a bit of a slow start, the Lions continued to open up their advantage throughout the game before cruising down the stretch.
