Jesuit dropped its 2024-25 district opener to Lake Highlands on Tuesday, falling to the Wildcats, 47-43 at Walsh Gym.
 
The Rangers were led by senior Michael Grant, who scored 18 points during the wildly physical contest. Senior Caleb Steger scored nine points, senior Kevin Butera added five points, senior Ethan Mahowald hit a three-pointer, and the duo of juniors William Alexander and Justin Fern secured two points apiece. Senior Charlie Peters continued his all-around excellence with four points, a team-high seven rebounds, two assists and two steals. Mahowald matched Peters' two assists to tie for the team lead. 
 
Jesuit will return to the hardwood on Friday, where the Rangers will welcome the MacArthur Cardinals to Walsh Gym for a 7 p.m. tip-off.
