However, Lawncrest Rec leader Steve Schmidt coached the kids to a 62-51 comeback victory.
John McBride served as the announcer.
Among those in attendance were City Councilman Anthony Phillips and Anne Marie Dunn, a manager for the city Department of Parks and Recreation.
The game marked one of the final events at Lawncrest Rec, which will close soon for renovations that are expected to take at least a year. ••
