Come support our 8th grade boys basketball teams as they welcome Newton after school today. See you there!
Yesterday was the 7th-grade boy's basketball team's first game of the season vs. Euclid. After a tough first half, the A-Team played some solid basketball in the second half and really turned up the tempo during the 4th quarter. Highlights included great assists by Mereck Franks, tough defense by Miles McMonigle and Cole Troupe, strong point-guard play from Jacob Laderer, and clutch buckets by Miles Upah.
The B-Team also played well vs. the Falcons. Some highlights include Cam Carnes's tight handles, Kaiden Vaughn's formidable defense, and Brennen Dreiling's performance at both ends of the court as he led the team in rebounds and scoring. Because of the entire team's smothering defense, the Puma's held the Falcons to only 14 points and secured a win.
Last night was also a great chance for the C-Team to practice skills and work as a team. Of note were the team's scorers, Milo Bonnema, Reily Stearns, Cayden Whitney, and Caleb Wright. The defense was led by Jaxson Mathieson, Tully Becker, and Christian Flores.
Pumas, please come and support the team this Monday at their only home game as they take on the Newton Knights. We hope to see you there!
