On a cold Tuesday night, Fairmont Senior (6-6) utilized a suffocating defensive press to defeat North Marion (2-11) with a final score of 48-29. In a game characterized by the youth of both rosters, the Polar Bears overcame a slow offensive start behind Junior Reneica King’s 17-point performance. The defining factor was Fairmont Senior’s defense, which forced the Huskies into multiple turnovers and 10-second violations, resulting in a 19-7 halftime lead that North Marion could not surmount. While Huskies Coach Chris Freeman acknowledged his team's struggle to match their opponent's speed and strength, Fairmont Coach Ryan Sevier expressed optimism that his team's defensive discipline points toward a promising future in state competition. Fairmont Senior returns to action Saturday against Winfield.
