Valpo falls in DAC opener

Valpo Portage Pic.jfif

Opening DAC play on Friday night, Valpo battled with a tough Portage team but ultimately came up short 47-38. Every quarter of the game was within reach, but Valpo struggled to get things going offensively against the stingy defense of Portage.  

The Vikings look to address the challenges that face the team as we move forward in the season. While the host Vikings came up short on the night, the team had a great opportunity to meet students from the Valparaiso community in what will surely be a lesson in perspective; win or lose, there are a lot of future Vikings who look up to the team. Thank you to all of the supporters and families who came out for "Meet the Vikes" night.

Jack Smiley led the team with 15 points and 2 assists. Mason Jones added 7 points and 6 rebounds. 

The Valpo Viking Junior Varsity Boys Basketball team defeated the Portage Indians 48-44 on Friday. The Vikings effort on the glass was key as they secured 18 offensive rebounds. That effort was led by Isaiah Keene who had 10 points and 12 rebounds. Colin Kaleth had 10 points and KJ Avery added 9 points 5 rebounds and 3 assists and Deandre Price had 7 points and 4 rebounds.
