North Clarion comes into the contest with a one-game lead over C-L in the KSAC North with a conference mark of 7-0 and an overall record of 16-1. The Lions are 13-3 overall and 6-1 in the KSAC North.

A victory by North Clarion would all but ensure the Wolves of becoming the first team other than C-L to win the North since North Clarion won the title in 2013. C-L has won the past five KSAC North Championships.

A Lions win would cause of tie at the top of the conference and make the final two weeks of the regular season very interesting.

North Clarion won the first meeting over C-L beating the Lions, 79-47, Dec. 18, at C-L. Kyle Mills led the Wolves with 20 points and 10 rebounds with Devin Walters adding 12 points on four 3-pointers, Sam Minich 11 points and Tyler McCord-Wolbert 10 points.

Curvin Goheen had a double-double for C-L with 15 points and 13 rebounds with Deion Deas adding 16 points and Hayden Callen 13 points and seven rebounds.

Kyle Mills, all 6-foot-7 of him, leads the way for North Clarion averaging 19.6 ppg. His cousin, Korey Mills, along with the 6-foot-4 McCord-Wolbert, adds 11.8 ppg while twins Logan (9.2 ppg) and Sam (8.3 ppg) Minich are also key players.

C-L is paced by Deas’ 22.9 points per game, and a couple of weeks ago the Lions got a big lift with the return of 1,000-point scorer Ian Callen to the lineup. Ian Callen missed the first 11 games with an injury he suffered in football season but has scored 91 points for an average of 18.2 ppg since returning to the lineup Jan. 11 against Union. Also for C-L, Hayden Callen, Ian’s younger brother, adds 16.6 ppg with Goheen chipping in 8.6 ppg.
