The 7th grade boys’ basketball B team had a historic performance last night, defeating Geneva Middle School North by a score of 46-4. Playing with an intensity rarely seen at the middle school level, your Vikings held their neighbors to the north scoreless for the entire second half. Leading the scoring for the Vikings was Sam Cervenka, who scored 13 points, including three 3 pointers. Noah Hallahan, also known as Big Noah, scored 9 points, followed by Ellis Dziadus and Nick Norkus, who both chipped in 6 points. Quinn Hood played masterful defense, forcing many a turnover, while Cooper Black, Lucas Burghardt, Noah Kettlewell (also known as Lil' Noah), and Ryder (Hollywood) Krempin each scored 2 points. Jack Higgins, known for his improbable rebounds and incredible hustle, scored 4 points.
The B squad ends the regular season with a share of first place, with a record of 7-1. The conference tournament begins next week so wish your Vikings good luck as they begin their quest for a tournament championship!
