We move to the Mid-Cities for the district opener between longtime rivals Euless Trinity and L.D. Bell. This one nip and tuck all the way, Trinity trailing for much of the 2nd half but this 3 ball from Tavares (Tuh-Var-us) James cuts the lead to 2 early in the 4th quarter.
Bell would extend the lead back to 5 late in transition, off the steal in transition Naz Brown buries a deep 3 to force a Trinity timeout. THe game comes down to this, With just 5 seconds left, trailing by 3 Trinity's Malachi Farr hits Marcus Ervin off the screen, he gets a good look...but it's just off the mark, L.D. Bell opens district play with a 57-54 win over Trinity.
