![Watching a small group scrimmage, Ben Lundt, St. Louis City SC goalkeeper and founder of Lundt Pro Soccer Training, shouts words of encouragement to players on Sunday, April 26 n the Lafayette grass soccer field. “The idea behind [the event] was to bring the professional soccer players closer to the community because usually people only get to see us on TV or in the stadium. [Families] actually having the opportunity to have their kids on the field with us is the most important aspect,” Ben Lundt said.](https://lancerfeed.press/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/IMG_6823-1200x800.jpg)

Lafayette’s varsity boys basketball blew out the Mehlville Panthers 61-21 last Friday. Starting off strong, the Lancers went on a 32-6 run during the first half, and junior Nate Messer was the Lancers leading scorer, dropping 10 valuable points. Although Messer had a spectacular performance, senior Dylan Corbet was the one who everyone was watching.
The crowd began to chant “We want Corbet!” in the 4th quarter, as he’s only played in 6 games this season. Finally, he got his chance, and proceeded to throw up his first three pointer; however it clanked off the back of the iron. Hoping to not miss his second look, he knocked down his first three-ball of the season, and the crowd erupted.
Corbet said, “It was the best basketball atmosphere I’ve ever seen!”
Looking for their second straight win, the Lancers play Northwest next Tuesday. The game will take place at Northwest, and will begin at 7 p.m.
