Bloomfield, Missouri – The Bell City Cubs traveled to Bloomfield Tuesday evening to play the Wildcats on their home court.
“We played as good as half as we have all year the first two periods of tonight’s game,” commented Coach Jason Karnes, Head Basketball Coach for the Wildcats. “I thought we got a little sloppy and didn’t guard as well as what we could have the second half,” He continued.
Brett Ruch #21 scored 21 points followed by Austin Williamson #22 with 15 and Caleb Baker #2 with 11 points for the game.
With the Wildcats improving their record to 11-10 on the season, Coach said, “We are still searching for a level of consistency that will allow us to compete at a high level. Back to practice tomorrow as we have to prepare for a very good Puxico team!”
