| The Decorah
High School 9th grade boys basketball team has extended
their winning streak to 5 games and pushed their overall
record to 11-2 on the season thus far.
The Viking freshmen are
coming off a week in which they beat Waukon, Oelwein and
Prairie Du Chien. Tough defense and a balanced
offensive attack continued to be the key to the team's
success in the 41-25 win over Waukon, the 41-24 win over
Oelwein and the 42-41 victory over Prairie Du Chien.
Patrick Larson and Jacob
Kvale led the squad in scoring over the 3 game series.
Michael Peter, Drew Schwartz, and Patrick Winter have not
only rounded out the scoring punch, but they dominated the
boards throughout the week.
Head
Coach Mark Lovelace stated, "The
growth of the team has been fun to watch! Each game it
seems like there are two or three new guys that step-up and
contribute to the team's success."
The freshmen will finish the
season this week with games against New Hampton and
Cresco--the only two teams to have beaten the Viking
freshmen this season. |
