Defense was tough all night.

The LHS boys basketball team defeated North Royalton 57-49 Saturday night in second round OHSAA Tournament action. The victory sends the Rangers to the District semifinals, where they will face St. Edward on Wednesday night at Strongsville High School. The Eagles defeated Rhodes 88-57 at home on Saturday to earn their spot in the game.

Lakewood, the #4 seed in the distict, faced a tough challenge from the fifth-seeded Bears. The Rangers jumped out to a quick 7-0 lead midway through the first period, and seemed to have the game in hand. They dominated the game in the paint, with senior Jacob Sala and junior Tim Smith providing the early points.
