After suffering losses in their first five games of the season, the Fayetteville-Perry Rockets were able to break the early season losing streak by capturing a narrow 47-45 win at Whiteoak in the Tuesday, Dec. 20 round of high school boys’ hoop action.
The league victory over Whiteoak upped the Rockets to a 1-3 record in Southern Hills Athletic Conference play.
The Rockets were scheduled to host the Williamsburg Wildcats for a non-league contest on Dec. 23, and they will face the Eastern Warriors in round one of the Brown County Holiday Classic Tournament on Dec. 20 at Eastern High School.
