The Pandora-Gilboa Rockets boys basketball team played host to the Arcadia Redskins in a Blanchard Valley Conference match-up Friday night Dec. 8.  In the season’s home opener, the Rockets (3-0, 1-0 BVC, 0-0 PCL) overwhelmed the Redskins by a final of 63-28.

Note from BHS athletic director Alex Hanna: 

“Both O-G and Bluffton participated in the Eli Jones student section theme, where we remembered the Bluffton sophomore who tragically lost his life this week. 

“His passing has left a hole in the heart of the Bluffton community. Eli was a son, a brother, and a friend to so many.  

“For those who didn't know Eli, there is one word we can use to describe him and that is "good," he was a good friend, good teammate, good student, from a good family. We lost a good one this week. 

“Huge thank you to the Titan Boys Basketball team for donating over $300 to the Eli Jones Memorial Fund.”
