The Libby High School boys basketball team rallied from an early nine-point deficit to take the lead in the fourth quarter only to see Bigfork win in the end, 43-41.
The Vikings came through at the free-throw line in the game's final minute while Libby (2-1, 5-5) missed out on opportunities to come up short in the nonconference matchup.
Kelly May and Alex Cislo both recorded double-doubles. May scored 12 points, a night that included a trio of 3-pointers, to go along with 11 rebounds. Cislo also scored 12 points and added a dozen boards before fouling out with 1:38 remaining.
