Lakeview came from behind in the second half as they outscored the Wildcats 10-4 in the third period and 16-10 in the final eight minutes.
“We started out good in the first half and then we had too many turnovers and missed lay ups in the second half that took us out of the game,” said Walkerville coach Lee Oomen.
Collin Chase led Walkerville offense 14 points and seven rebounds. Connor Shafer tossed in nine points.
Walkerville (1-13, 0-10) will host Bear Lake on Wednesday.
