Northwest basketball team uses hot start to get past Lumen 49-39 By Mike Moore Staff Writer Jackson – Erasing a 21-point second-half deficit back in December against Lumen Christi served as a sort of proof to Northwest coach Justin Brown that his guys could hang with the Titans on the basketball court, even if that game ended in a two-point loss. Well, nearly two months later, there was no more sort of. The proof was front and center.

Well, nearly two months later the same two teams are set to meet, and Brown said his guys are embracing the opportunity to pull off what would be a pretty big upset. The teams meet tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Northwest. “We have to play 32 minutes,” Brown said when asked about the key for tonight. “We have to be ready to play a full game. “Execution is so important.
