COACH'S CORNER

“We have some mental errors that we need to get corrected, but I like our effort. We are happy to go 2-0 on this opening weekend against two solid Class B opponents. Jake Scheef had a great night offensively for us. Jake Ruzicka has played really well. For a Frosh to give us 8 points and 10 boards is outstanding. Josh Langemeier and Gavin Iversen had good nights for us as well.” -- Coach Scheef
