OGDEN — The Panorama boys lifted their record to 13-4 overall and 9-3 in WCAC play with conference wins at Ogden Tuesday and at Des Moines Christian Saturday.

Panorama topped Ogden (9-8, 6-6), 66-46, and DMC (14-2, 11-1), 52-51.

Saturday’s win stopped a three-game skid for Panorama. The guests led, 20-12, after one quarter, but saw their lead trimmed to 28-27 at the intermission. The Lions tied the game, at 38-all, entering the fourth quarter, with the Panthers holding on in the final seconds when a rushed shot from the hosts was off-target.

Drew Taylor and Brice Taylor each had 13 points for Panorama, with Lucas Leiferman adding nine points. Evan Taylor and Zach Rizzuti each had six points, with Dominic Walker tallying five points.

Adam Witty had 13 points, Ben Loverude 11, and Elijah Hess 10 for DMC.

Panorama held a 38-17 halftime lead over Ogden and never looked back in winning Tuesday.

Drew Taylor had 12 points and Jared Wasson 11, with Trent Hambleton having seven points, and Leiferman, Ryan Klinge, and Dominic Walker six. Preston Walker had five points, Evan Taylor four, Brice Taylor three, and Austin Block, Evan Neuharth and Rizzuti two apiece.

Ogden was led by Kolby Moorman, who had 24 points, and Lane Snedden, who had 12.
