@ Charleston Holiday Tournament:
Galesburg lost to Edwardsville 56-40.
The Tigers extended a three-point halftime lead (25-22) to nine after three quarters of play (33-24). The Silver Streaks managed to cut the deficit to seven points on three occasions in the fourth quarter, but could get no closer than that.
Victor Davis led Galesburg (5-6) with 15 points and Brandon Thompson had 10. Edwardsville improved its record to 5-0.
The Streaks look to snap a four-game losing skid Tuesday with two games on the schedule. First up is Charleston at 12:30 then Taylorville at 5:45. Coverage follows Galesburg High School girls basketball on WGIL AM 1400.
Galesburg's Dalton Davis is pressured by Edwardsville's Tommy Anderson as he starts the Streaks' offense. Edwardsville, the Charleston Holiday tournament's two-time defending champion, beat Galesburg 56-40 in the opening game for both teams at Eastern Illinois University's Lantz Arena.
