St. Marys ? Nate Scott scored 13 points, but Veritas Christian School’s boys basketball team had trouble containing aggressive St. Mary’s Academy in a 53-33 road loss Monday night.

“Their defense was very intense, and they rebounded better than us,” Veritas coach Gary Hammer said.

Veritas, which fell to 13-6 on the season, will play host to Marais des Cygnes Valley at 8 p.m. Tuesday.
