The Pirates dropped to 10-10 on the season last week with a pair of losses to Paris and Liberty-Eylau.
The run-and-gun offense of the Wildcats was too much for the Pirates to overcome Tuesday as Pittsburg fell at home to Paris, 67-28. The Pirates kept things close for a quarter and trailed by only four after one quarter of play, 13-9. It was all Paris from there as the Wildcats used a 36-10 run over the second and third quarters to build a 49-19 lead heading into the fourth.
The Pirates did get a pair of three-pointers from Sir Charles Perkins in the loss and the team shot a season-best 8-9 from the foul line.
Perkins led the Pirates with eight points in the loss while Ty Smith added six, E.J. Hill and Jakevion Traylor each scored four, D.J. Hughes added three points and Markevious Traylor scored two.
The Pirates fought hard Friday but could do little against an impressive offensive attack from the Leopards as Pittsburg fell at Liberty-Eylau, 66-50.
