Topeka, KS – For the first time since January 5, the Manhattan girls and boys basketball teams played a doubleheader in Centennial League play. The girls game was an entertaining, back-and-forth contest, but the Lady Indians’ upset bid against Hayden (#2 in 3A) would fall short 57-54. The Manhattan boys trailed by double-digits in the 2nd quarter, but fought back and won by double-digits 68-56.
