Too many turnovers cost the United South Central boys’ basketball team Monday at the Blue Earth Area Tournament in a 66-62 loss to Jackson County Central.
Riley Swearingen led all scorers with 23 points and Kyle Bauman added 18 for the Rebels (3-2), but JCC (5-1) had some shooting threats of its own and Ty Schwarting and Trevor Bargfrede led the way.
Schwarting scored 21 points and Bargfrede added 15 in the victory.
