Argyle 72,

Greenville 31

  PRINCETON — Defending state champion Argyle handed the Greenville Lions a 72-31 loss on Thursday in the opening round of the Princeton tournament.

  Jerry Dickeson led the Lions with 10 points and Dartannon Wilson chipped in six as Greenville dropped to 4-7 for the season.

  Spencer McCloud pumped in 19 points and Zach Dickerson added 15 for Argyle, which is ranked sixth in Class 3A by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches.

  Greenville coach Marcus Smith said the Lions played poor defense.

  “Our reaction was slow,” he said. “Our rotation was slow. They outrebounded us and they outhustled us to every loose ball. Offensively, too many quick shots and we weren’t consistent.”

  The Lions will face Dallas Molina at 7 tonight at the Princeton tournament.
