The St. Frances and Lake Clifton boys basketball teams have both done their part. In the preseason poll, the defending Baltimore Catholic League champion Panthers earned the No. 1 spot with the Baltimore City champ Lakers right on their heels at No. 2. Midway through the season, both teams haven't budged with each team enjoying excellent seasons.

The Lakers have a unique opportunity to change that tomorrow when the teams meet in the final night of the 13th annual Basketball Academy at Morgan State. Game time is set for 7:30.

St. Frances (16-2 and 10-0 against area competition) is led by Montrose Christian senior transfer Terrell Vinson, while the Lakers (8-0) lean on senior Will Barton, who transferred from National Christian Academy before playing his first two years at City. Vinson, 6 feet 6, and Barton, 6-7, both bring versatile inside-outside games.
