FAIR GROVE — The Lebanon High School girls’ basketball team kicked off their 2020-21 season with a 58-50 victory over the Springfield Catholic Fightin’ Irish on Tuesday night in pool play of the Fair Grove tournament.

Things started off bleak for LHS, committing six turnovers on their first eight possessions and trailed 10-1 after Catholic started off hot.

Sophomore Raegan McCowan scored seven first-quarter points in the final four minutes to cut the deficit to five points after the officials waved off a buzzer-beater three-pointer.
