"I was really pleased with the win tonight. I thought we were very solid in every phase of the game. 24 assists to 7 turnovers is outstanding. We really struggled our last time out, so as a team we really needed a win like this to boost our confidence and morale. Taylor just had a tremendous game offensively. It was great to see him get untracked with his shooting. Layne Moore also shot the ball very well. I thought that everyone who played contributed in a positive manner. This was a game that we were very concerned with. With Jake Barry still sidelined, and Jared Moline out with a shoulder injury, and Tyler Brunsting being very limited with a sore back, we had a lot of kids step up and play well for us." Said Coach Kevin Scheef.
Wahoo improves to 1-2, and will play Fort Calhoun on Friday at home, and travel to Centennial on Saturday.
