Badgers Win Season's First Away Game

Friday night, our Badgers hit the road for their first away game of the season, traveling to Simms to take on the Tigers. The change in venue did little to slow the team’s momentum, as they roared to an impressive 20-7 lead by the end of the first quarter. The second quarter was no different, with the Badgers continuing to dominate, heading into halftime with a commanding 31-12 lead.

The second half saw the bench players getting extended minutes, but the team didn’t lose its stride. The Badgers won each quarter and held the Tigers to single-digit scoring in every period, sealing a decisive 66-28 victory.
