Let us dive on in and take a look at some highlights of Saturday's night of hoops.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Lawrence North outlasts Plainfield</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lawrence North hosting Plainfield was probably the biggest game on paper throughout the entire state and it certainly lived up to that billing. In a very close, back-and-forth battle throughout the entire game, Lawrence North was able to outlast Plainfield 70-61 to improve to 11-3 on the season. The Wildcats were led in scoring by Butler signee [player_tooltip player_id='1296979' first='Azavier' last='Robinson'] with 26 point with junior power forwards [player_tooltip player_id='1729136' first='Brennan' last='Miller'] adding 16 points and [player_tooltip player_id='1509229' first='Kai' last='McGrew'] with 15 points.

With the loss, Plainfield dropped to 9-6 on the year. Up next, Lawrence North will host North Central on 1/24.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Charlestown survives Madison</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Down in southern Indiana, we had a really fun one going on between Charlestown and Madison.
