On Thursday, The Wolves boys basketball team traveled to Hulett to take on the Red Devils. The Wolves jumped out early and often and took a 41-13 lead into halftime and cruised to a 52-31 Non-Conference win.

I thought we played together, shared the basketball and pressured them extremely well. All 12 players who suited gained valuable playing time experience.

The Wolves Junior Varsity team took on the Devils in a non-conference matchup on the same day, but only played two quarters because of numbers. The squad came out and played very well, winning both quarters against the Red Devils. Coach Peterson was happy with boys and their intensity.

The Wolves will be back in action Thursday, January 14 in the West River Classic Tournament in South Dakota. Moorcroft will take on the Wall Eagles in the first round at 6 p.m. We will play again Friday night in Wall and Saturday in the Rapid City Civic Center.
