After a tough loss Friday night, the North Fayette Valley boys rebounded the following day with a big non-conference win over Leroy-Ostarnder (Minnesota) in the Border Battle at Luther College.
“We played less than 13 hours after the Kee game. Leroy Ostrander was 2-1 coming into the game and had two very good guards,” said coach Matt Krambeer after the TigerHawk victory. “We got off to a great start, going up 11-0, and never looked back. We had good defensive energy and shared the ball really well with a season high in assists (23) and points (77). Additionally, we got great play from our bench, which had 39 points.”
