The Fernley High School boys basketball team lost its opening game in the Lake Mead Invitational to Boulder City Thursday afternoon, 57-47.

Boulder City jumped on the Vaqueros early to take a 22-14 lead after the first quarter, and led 31-24 at the half. The Eagles stretched the lead to 15 points in the third before Fernley rallied to within four in the fourth quarter.

“Just couldn’t finish the comeback,” coach Derek Miller said. “Need to execute better.”
