UNIONVILLE — The Community Vikings warmed up in the fourth quarter with 29 points, but it was not enough to offset a hot-shooting night that included 12 treys by the Grundy County Yellow Jackets as the Vikings fell 85-66 in a District 7-AA game and regular season finale Friday night.
Community (1-24, 0-6) stayed close with the Yellow Jackets for most of the first quarter and trailed 10-9 with 2:06 remaining before Grundy County used five treys and a 9-0 run to take a 19-9 lead to the second quarter.
It was another run for the Yellow Jackets in the second quarter that extended the Grundy County lead. 
The Vikings trailed 31-22 with 3:29 left before the Yellow Jackets scored the last eight points with the help of two three-pointers in the final minute to take a 39-22 lead into the intermission.
Ramon Hernandez had five points to lead the Vikings in the third quarter, but the Yellow Jackets continued the pressure by scoring 27 points as Grundy County took a 66-37 lead to the final quarter.
There were plenty of points for the Vikings in the quarter with Jason Cullum, Landon Berman, and Jaxon Williams each scoring five points as nine Community players netted points. 
A flurry of treys pulled the Vikings to within 15 at 78-63 with 2:38 remaining, but it was as close as Community would get.
"Grundy shot well and we helped them by giving them one open look after another," Coach Robbie Davis of the Vikings said. 
"Tuesday night, we played extremely hard on defense to where we were down six with the ball with a few minutes left in the game. Tonight, we played with no intensity or desire to compete and Grundy took advantage of it," Davis added.
Isaac Campbell had 18 points to lead four Yellow Jackets in double figures.  Sam Parson had 17 points and Jarod Huntley scored 13, while Brendan Marsh added 10 points for Grundy County.
Jacob Flannagan had 11 points to lead a balanced-scoring attack for the Vikings as 13 of the 14 Community players scored in the contest.
Grundy County was 23-of-35 at the free throw line while the Vikings were 12-of-21.
Community now begins District 7-AA tournament play which will be played at Forrest.  The Vikings take on top-seeded Cascade Friday night at 6 p.m. in a semifinal matchup.
