Canton couldn't get their offense going as they fell 46-33 to NEB during NTL boys' basketball action.

The Warriors were down just two points after the first quarter, but a big second from the Panthers saw them take a 27-15 lead into the locker rooms.

The lead would get to 17 points at one point early in the fourth, but Canton rallied, cutting it to a 12-point deficit with five minutes to play. That’s as close it got, though.

Ben Fitch led Canton with 17 points, going 7-for-11 from the charity stripe. He added nine rebounds, and four steals.

Brayden Vroman added six points and four boards, while Talin Williams had four points and seven rebounds.

Gunnar Resavage netted four points, Rylan Wesneski scored two, and Andrew Smith chipped in with one.
