The Columbia Falls boys basketball team had a rough opening week, going 0-3, but two of the losses were by a single point.
The Cats opened the season Tuesday with a loss to Hamilton on the road, 65-64 and then lost to Dillon Friday at the Northwest-Southwest Tip-Off tourney in Frenchtown 51-50. On Saturday, they lost to Class B Loyola, 71-58.
The Hamilton game came down to the wire, as Jace Hill put the Cats up with 40 seconds left, but Hamilton scored in the closing seconds to pull out the win.
