Coach Janata was very pleased with his team and said, “Against a very talented Bancroft Rosalie team, the boys did a nice job of playing defense and hitting the offensive and defensive boards. Bancroft Rosalie went on several offensive runs, but the boys did a nice job of composing themselves and picking each other up and getting back in the game.”
The leading scorers for the Jags were:
Nathan Tomcak with 13 points.
Dane Meyer and Andre Martin with 12 points.
Hunter Luther has 8 points.
