Fast start for C-M

The Cato-Meridian boys basketball team started the season on the right foot as they defeated Tyburn Academy, 70-26 in Monday's season opener.

The Blue Devils jumped in to take a quick 24-2 lead at the end of the first quarter, forcing the upstart Crusaders offense to play catch up.

By the half, Cato-Meridian had the lead, 37-13, but their play wasn't as intense as their coach would have liked.
