Seabury eliminated from 1A sub-state

? Khadre Lane scored 14 points, but Seabury Academy’s boys basketball team fell in the Class 1A sub-state semifinals, 63-45, to Waverly on Friday.

“This is definitely bittersweet,” Seabury coach Ashley Battles said. “We played the absolute hardest schedule of any 1A team in the state. A lot of people look at 1A and don’t think it’s that impressive, but I can tell you, anyone in that gym could see that was the real deal. 1A basketball is the real deal.”

Reed Grabill added 13 points for Seabury, which ended its season at 12-7.

Battles contributed a slow start to the end result. Seabury committed 10 turnovers in the first half.

“That was insurmountable,” Battles said.

Josh McDermott (10 points) and Johnny McDermott (eight) rounded out the Seahawks scoring.
