Gulfport boys basketball hosting Meridian in some early season hoops.

- on the high school hardwood...- gulfport- hosting meridian, in some early- season hoops... big test right- out of the gates, for the - admirals.

- already down by eight, coming - out of the half... and then the- wildcats open up the third- quarter... on a 12-oh run... as- d-- marcus naylor knocks down the - triple... and the trap really - giving gulfport problems... de-- marcus powe with the steal... - it's the de-marcus show...- lay-up good, for the lefty... - five- points in less than 12 seconds,- for the visitors... head- coach owen miller calls timeout- immediately.- and eventually... the admirals- get back in it... good- penetration on- the baseline... and kaleb hall- just flings this one up... how- did - that go in... one of the many - - - - secrets, from the land of good- and plenty.

- now gulfport still has its back- against the wall... and - meridian has its back to the- ball... great idea from davion- henry... makes one of two, from- the stripe.

- this time passing out of the- same spot... kamari lewis shake- free... and that's three ball - corner pocket, for the senior..- admirals showing signs of - life... but still not cutting - into- that lead... what up b-cobb.- former long beach head coach in- the house... and this - is former long beach sharp- shooter malik handy... the- handy man... now a junior at- gulfport... buries that one,- from the left wing.

- gulfport down by 23 at the end- of the third quarter... but - then out-scores meridian by 17,- in the fourth quarter... losing- just 61-55... too little, too - late... but perhaps lesson- learned.- -
