PREP BASKETBALL: Vikings fall to Flathead
- BOYS
KALISPELL, Mont. - Chandler Escalante scored 15 points to lead the Flathead Braves to a 69-52 win over the Coeur d'Alene Vikings on Monday night.
Devin Kluss finished with 13 points for Coeur d'Alene, which was missing two starters, Jared Moore and Kelton Hunter, both out with concussions.
"Flathead was a really good team - big and physical," Vikings coach Kent Leiss said. "We knew the game would be a challenge, and we turned the ball over too much tonight to give us a chance."
The Braves took control in the final four minutes of the second quarter and took a 11-point lead into the locker room.
"We were just impatient on offense and we just played too good of a team to get away with that."
Coeur d'Alene (10-5) travels to Moscow to take on the Bears on Saturday.
