Clare Girls Win First Game Boys Lose
Friday December 15 Clare hosts Gladwin in a girls and boys basketball double header.

Cliff Parker leads Clare with five field goals while Gladwin relies on Fisch and a solid pivot in Hutson. The Clare boys struggle on offense and lose 13 to 2 as Gladwin capitalizes on size and fouls.
