The Wahoo Warriors defeated the David City Aquinas Monarchs 51-35 on Saturday night in David City.
The Warriors scored the first 11 points of the game behind two baskets apiece from David Stuchlik and Grant Anderson and a trey from Taylor Murren. Wahoo led 15-7 after one quarter. The Monarchs got back in the game in the second quarter, and trailed only 24-20 at the half.
A trey from Layne Moore started Wahoo on a 10-2 run to build the lead to 34-22. Wahoo led 40-25 after three quarters. The Warrior lead would grow as large as 21 in the fourth quarter at 46-25, before going on to the 51-35 win.
"The kids did a great job of coming back and playing hard after a rough night last night. Getting off to a good start was huge, then I thought we played a really nice second half. Our defensive pressure was much better tonight," said Coach Kevin Scheef.
Wahoo forced 23 Aquinas turnovers and held the Monarchs to just 21 percent (10-47) shooting from the floor. Murren led Wahoo with 14 points. Austin Watton and David Stuchlik scored 10 points and Grant Anderson added 8. Anderson grabbed 9 boards, and Stuchlik added 7 rebounds.
The Monarchs out-rebounded the Warriors 41-31. Wahoo's record is now 6-3. Aquinas falls to 2-7. The Warriors' next opponent is D.C. West, on Saturday in Valley.
