Thanks to the community and students of LHS for the support this season and especially last night. We are extremely sad we couldn’t get it done, but are very proud of the season we put together. This group of seniors will be greatly missed on and off the court next season.
Game 3 Recap:
SUB-SECTION CHAMPS! We defeated Fairmont 54-33 to earn a spot in the section championship. Another stellar defensive effort by the girls and contributions on offense from many.
Next Friday | 5:00 | at SMSU | vs NL-S for a spot in the state tourney!
On behalf of the entire Luverne basketball team we want to send our condolences to @sjagbb coach Steve Witcraft as he mourns the passing of his mother. Sometimes it’s bigger than the game. 🙏🏼
Game 2 Recap:
We faced a very talented St James team in the second round of sub-sections. We were able to control the game on the defensive end and we had major contributions from a lot of players on offense. We advance to the sub-section finals where we will face Fairmont.

Game #1 Recap:
We faced MVL in the first round of section play. We came out firing on all cylinders to lead 46-8 at half. We were able to play the whole roster and everyone contributed positive minutes! The final score was 87-19.
Next up: St James Tuesday night!
Game #25 Recap:
We fell tonight to a tough Marshall squad 51-37. Our defense was really good but our offense stayed in Luverne. Still a very nice accomplishment for these girls to bring home a division championship.
On to the payoffs!
Game 24 Recap:
We closed out the regular season (maybe) in Worthington tonight. Foul trouble and sluggish play contributed to a slim 5 point lead at the half. The second half we executed and played our game to claim a 76-39 victory.
Next up: vs Marshall in the conf tournament
