3A No. 3 Mount Pleasant 63, Iowa City Liberty 37

Mount Pleasant overpowered Iowa City Liberty in Mount Pleasant.

Cole Telecky led Cedar Valley Christian (1-2) with 10 points.

Iowa City Regina 66, Mid-Prairie 44

The Regals opened their state-football delayed season with a win in Iowa City.

Marion 48, Independence 37

The purveying thought is kids can get over tough losses better than coaches.

'Yeah, that's probably real accurate,' agreed Mike Manderscheid.

You could tell the Marion boys' basketball coach still was a little bugged by his team's one-point loss last Friday night at Solon. A 3-point shot at the buzzer gave the Spartans the win and is all that's separating the Indians from a nice little 3-0 start.

Marion rebounded Tuesday night with a 48-37 win over Independence to begin play in the Wamac Conference's West Division. A 2-1 record isn't too bad.
